In the Python API, it appears the default value of capacity is 0 when calling tiledb.SparseArray.create(). I am assuming that the actual capacity of a TileDB tile using this default value is not actually 0 and that this just triggers use of a default positive value, but haven’t been able to find that documented. What is the true capacity of a sparse array tile when a value of 0 is passed to create()?
Hi,
I recommend you check out the docs here: TileDB
When creating an array schema, you should consider the query patterns for that data and the typical slice that will be made on the data.
For verticals like TileDB-SOMA, we standardize many of these low-level parameters. With TileDB-Py and the wide range of use cases, we leave it up to the user to spec the array parameters of their choosing.
