At this point no decision was made. We have several features that were 
prototyped but were never productized, and indexing is one of them. It would 
take a lot of work to integrate indexing/querying feature into HDF5. It is also 
not clear if this is a right approach since we would be adding a lot of 
complexity to HDF5 increasing its maintenance cost. We need to evaluate other 
solutions that involve existing technologies. On another hand, it would be 
great to have indexing and querying in HDF5, wouldn’t it?  :-) 

During this year we have to release promised HPC features (see 
https://hdfgroup.org/wp/2015/05/whats-coming-in-the-hdf5-1-10-0-release/), and 
we will be working on the roadmap for HDF5. Stay tuned. Input from this FORUM 
would be highly appreciated as always.

Thank you!

Elena
