Another thing we're making possible is making the source data itself more granular, by breaking it into pieces and stringing the pieces back together in order. Same as was done with DNA in the human genome project.

Split it up, create an index of the parts, analyze and label each part in parallel, string it back together according to the index. Label the index according to the labels of the parts.

That's called "high throughput analysis".

DNA and events are both just character sets. 🤷‍♀️
