TileDB-SOMA

SOMA – for “Stack Of Matrices, Annotated” – is a flexible, extensible, and open-source API enabling access to data in a variety of formats. The driving use case of SOMA is for single-cell data in the form of annotated matrices where observations are frequently cells and features are genes, proteins, or genomic regions.

The TileDB-SOMA package is a C++ library with APIs in Python and R, using TileDB Embedded to implement the SOMA specification.
