Products Overview
Kdb+ is a high performance, column-oriented database designed for massive datasets. Kdb+ provides a unified database that eliminates latency across multiple data management systems.
Kdb+ includes q, a SQL-like vector processing programming language that can access data directly, avoiding the need to send data to an external routine for analysis. Its interactive environment provides immediate feedback to developers resulting in faster application development cycles. Kdb+ and q offer performance and productivity that is not available from other languages and pre-packaged solutions.
Kx technology is for customers interested in a database solution that scales. In 2012, after nearly 20 years in business, global institutions are using kdb+ as the central database to capture, store and analyze massive amounts of time sensitive data.
