The Portland Group Compilers are gaining popularity with the growing interest in accelerating HPC applications with Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). Given this, many applications rely on having a usable working version of HDF5 that they can link into their applications.
HDF5 is portable and is extensible, allowing applications to evolve in their use of HDF5." Other data models, like NetCDF from UCAR, are built on top of HDF5 and are heavily used in oceanography, meteorology, and other earth science domains. It supports an unlimited variety of datatypes, and is designed for flexible and efficient I/O and for high volume and complex data.
From the HDF website "HDF5 is a data model, library, and file format for storing and managing data.
HDF5 has long been a standard for sharing scientific data across High Performance Computing (HPC) platforms.
