Subject: [Bioc-devel] GenomicsDB

Recently heard about GenomicsDB from Intel:
https://github.com/Intel-HLS/GenomicsDB/wiki

My understanding is that the upcoming GATK 4? will target it directly
for storing genotypes. It's based on the array-oriented database
TileDB, which I think distinguishes itself from e.g. SciDB by special
support for sparse data.

Seems TileDB might be a good candidate for a DelayedArray backend. But
I guess we would to represent it as an entire
SummarizedExperiment/VCF.

Thoughts?
