Abstract	While file system metadata is well characterized by a variety of workload studies, scientific metadata is much less well understood. We characterize scientific metadata, in order to better understand the implications for index design. Based on our findings, existing solutions for either file system or scientific search will not suffice for indexing a large scientific file system. We describe the problems with existing solutions, and suggest column stores as an alternative approach.
