From Wikipedia
Zarr is an open standard for storing large multidimensional array data. It specifies a protocol and data format, and is designed to be "cloud ready" including random access, by dividing data into subsets referred to as chunks. Zarr can be used within many programming languages, including Python, Java, JavaScript, C++, Rust and Julia. It has been used by organizations such as Google and Microsoft to publish large datasets. Early versions of Zarr were first released in 2015 by Alistair Miles. Zarr is designed to support high-throughput distributed I/O on different storage systems, which is a common requirement in cloud computing. Multiple read operations can efficiently occur to a Zarr array in parallel, or multiple write operations in parallel.
