<h1><a class="anchor" id="sec_async"></a>
The HDF5 Event Set Interface</h1>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="subsec_async_intro"></a>
Introduction</h1>
<p>HDF5 provides asynchronous APIs for the HDF5 VOL connectors that support asynchronous HDF5 operations using the HDF5 Event Set (H5ES) API. This allows I/O to proceed in the background while the application is performing other tasks.</p>
<p>To support AIO capabilities for the HDF5 VOL connectors, the AIO versions for the functions listed in the table below were added to HDF5 library version 1.14.0 and later. The async version of the function has “_async” suffix added to the function name. For example, the async version for H5Fcreate is H5Fcreate_async.</p>
