Wow. Thanks for the replies. >What about CSV isn't working for you? CSV and gz are working perfectly fine. But to backup this data is a nightmare because of the small files. Each file ranges from 2k to 800kb (compressed) How are you going to be using the data? This data can be used for viewing and doing calculations. The calculation is basically going to seek thru the file and its fields and perform calculations. basically, zcat foo.csv.gz | awk -F, '{ print ($3 + $9) }' What languages will you be using it from? C/C++/Perl and Java (yuck) How much data are you talking about?
