Slice Data

Learn how serverless slicing allows rapid analysis.

TileDB’s architecture allows for elastic and scalable data access. The serverless nature and the underlying storage format enables for a completely lock-free, multi-reader/multi-writer system, which provides massive scalability.

When data is sliced, the request is sent to TileDB Cloud where all filtering and computations happen server side and only the results are returned to the client. This minimizes data movement and allows for high performance with lower egress costs and lower latency.
