Pachyderm is git for data. We work hard to make sure we can store data of different types (binary, text, json) efficiently. We also work hard to give you good mechanisms to read the data in a distributed way. I'd be curious how this suits your purposes.

Just started looking at Pachyderm.

While I can see how a git-based filesystem can help with some use cases, does it do any kind of indexing at all? I see that the FAQ recommends exporting the data from Pachyderm into PostgreSQL, which leaves me where I am now.
