Project < Coalescent Database (CDB)

CoalesentDB is a multi-modal database that speaks the CODA protocol. It decomposes coalescent data into a storage efficient format, and understands CODA schemas to allow for querying and link-following. Since CDB deals with binary data, it also easily integrates with the Core virtual CPU to act as a replacement for a hardware "disk", using a DMA controller to directly pass CDB queries to the database and write CODA data back into RAM. CDB also implements the Coda Transfer Protocol (CTP) to allow for querying and data transfer over the network.
