We are a data mining company and we have decided to give root a
try. My question is whether root could be used to read transaction
data off client-provided tapes, cleaned up and then stored into a root
file (possibly on a tape library).
We are considering using a 3575 Magstar MP Tape Library Dataserver.
In my previous life I was a physicist and I knew that some physicist
out there has had to deal with scanning huge amounts of raw data off tape,
doing some analysis and a DST on (possibly) tape.
