ADIOS2: The Adaptable Input Output (I/O) System version 2 is an open-source framework that addresses scientific data management challenges, e.g. scalable parallel I/O, as we approach the exascale era in high-performance computing (HPC). ADIOS 2 bindings are available in C++, C, Fortran, Python and can be used on supercomputers, personal computers, and cloud systems running on Linux, macOS and Windows. ADIOS 2 has out-of-the-box support for MPI and serial environments.
