TileDBArray 1.12.0
TileDB implements a framework for local and remote storage of dense and sparse arrays.
We can use this as a DelayedArray backend to provide an array-level abstraction,
thus allowing the data to be used in many places where an ordinary array or matrix might be used.
The TileDBArray package implements the necessary wrappers around TileDB-R
to support read/write operations on TileDB arrays within the DelayedArray framework.
TileDBArrayCreating a TileDBArray is as easy as:
X <- matrix(rnorm(1000), ncol=10)
library(TileDBArray)
writeTileDBArray(X)
## <100 x 10> TileDBMatrix object of type "double":
## [,1] [,2] [,3] ... [,9] [,10]
## [1,] 0.929558309 0.708750712 0.129839139 . -1.4233618 -0.5089131

Alternatively, we can use coercion methods:
as(X, "TileDBArray")
## <100 x 10> TileDBMatrix object of type "double":
## [,1] [,2] [,3] ... [,9] [,10]
## [1,] 0.929558309 0.708750712 0.129839139 . -1.4233618 -0.5089131

This process works also for sparse matrices:
Y <- Matrix::rsparsematrix(1000, 1000, density=0.01)
writeTileDBArray(Y)
## <1000 x 1000> sparse TileDBMatrix object of type "double":
## [,1] [,2] [,3] ... [,999] [,1000]
## [1,] 0 0 0 . 0.00 0.00
## [2,] 0 0 0 . 0.00 0.00
## [3,] 0 0 0 . 0.00 0.00
## [4,] 0 0 0 . 0.00 0.00
## [5,] 0 0 0 . 0.17 0.00
## ... . . . . . .
## [996,] 0 0 0 . 0 0
## [997,] 0 0 0 . 0 0
## [998,] 0 0 0 . 0 0
## [999,] 0 0 0 . 0 0
## [1000,] 0 0 0 . 0 0
Logical and integer matrices are supported:
writeTileDBArray(Y > 0)
## <1000 x 1000> sparse TileDBMatrix object of type "logical":
## [,1] [,2] [,3] ... [,999] [,1000]
## [1,] FALSE FALSE FALSE . FALSE FALSE
## [2,] FALSE FALSE FALSE . FALSE FALSE
## [3,] FALSE FALSE FALSE . FALSE FALSE
## [4,] FALSE FALSE FALSE . FALSE FALSE
## [5,] FALSE FALSE FALSE . TRUE FALSE
## ... . . . . . .
## [996,] FALSE FALSE FALSE . FALSE FALSE
## [997,] FALSE FALSE FALSE . FALSE FALSE
## [998,] FALSE FALSE FALSE . FALSE FALSE
## [999,] FALSE FALSE FALSE . FALSE FALSE
## [1000,] FALSE FALSE FALSE . FALSE FALSE
As are matrices with dimension names:
rownames(X) <- sprintf("GENE_%i", seq_len(nrow(X)))
colnames(X) <- sprintf("SAMP_%i", seq_len(ncol(X)))
writeTileDBArray(X)
## <100 x 10> TileDBMatrix object of type "double":
## SAMP_1 SAMP_2 SAMP_3 ... SAMP_9 SAMP_10

TileDBArraysTileDBArrays are simply DelayedArray objects and can be manipulated as such.
The usual conventions for extracting data from matrix-like objects work as expected:
out <- as(X, "TileDBArray")
dim(out)
## [1] 100 10
head(rownames(out))
## [1] "GENE_1" "GENE_2" "GENE_3" "GENE_4" "GENE_5" "GENE_6"
head(out[,1])
## GENE_1 GENE_2 GENE_3 GENE_4 GENE_5 GENE_6
## 0.9295583 -0.3300740 1.2779001 0.3785289 -1.1060483 0.5542262
We can also perform manipulations like subsetting and arithmetic.
Note that these operations do not affect the data in the TileDB backend;
rather, they are delayed until the values are explicitly required,
hence the creation of the DelayedMatrix object.

We can adjust some parameters for creating the backend with appropriate arguments to writeTileDBArray().
For example, the example below allows us to control the path to the backend
as well as the name of the attribute containing the data.
X <- matrix(rnorm(1000), ncol=10)
path <- tempfile()
writeTileDBArray(X, path=path, attr="WHEE")
