output from a simulation or observational dataset that you would like to stitch
together into a zarr store. If you have a way of combining those files lazily —
i.e. opening them into dask-backed arrays — into a single dataset with maybe
some additional light computations, then you can write contiguous "partitions"
of that dataset out via independent processes. A "partition" corresponds to a
some additional computations, then you can write contiguous "partitions" of that
dataset out via independent processes. A "partition" corresponds to a
contiguous group of dask "chunks." I.e. it can correspond to one or more chunks
across any number of dimensions. A key detail is no partition straddles any
dask chunks; this makes writing from independent processes completely safe.
