The package biglist provides persisted, out-of-memory Python data structures that implement the Sequence and Iterable interfaces with the capabilities of concurrent and distributed reading and writing. The main use case is processing large amounts of data that can not fit in memory. Persistence can be on local disk or in cloud storage.
