Alexander Ulanov commented on SPARK-8449:
-----------------------------------------

It seems that using the official HDF5 reader is not a viable choice for Spark 
due to platform dependent binaries. We need to look for pure Java 
implementation. Apparently, there is one called netCDF: 
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/blogs/news/entry/netcdf_java_library_version_44. It 
might be tricky to use it because the license is not Apache. However it worth a 
look.

> Add support for reading and writing HDF5 file format to/from LabeledPoint. 
> HDFS and local file system have to be supported. Other Spark formats to be 
> discussed. 
> Interface proposal:
> /* path - directory path in any Hadoop-supported file system URI */
> MLUtils.saveAsHDF5(sc: SparkContext, path: String, RDD[LabeledPoint]): Unit
> /* path - file or directory path in any Hadoop-supported file system URI */
> MLUtils.loadHDF5(sc: SparkContext, path: String): RDD[LabeledPoint]
