KEY FEATURES

ENABLING APPLICATION DEVELOPERS, DATA SCIENTISTS, AND DATA ENGINEERS TO POWER THE REAL-TIME INTELLIGENT ENTERPRISE.

kdb+ is a fast, powerful, scalable database whose ability to store and process vast amounts of data using q, its built-in programming language makes it an ideal platform for advanced analytics and machine learning.

The kdb+ Database

In-Memory Compute

Automatically distributes database operations across CPU cores.

Low-Footprint

Small memory footprint (<800kB) exploits L1/2 CPU caches (up to 100 times faster than RAM).

Columnar Design

Delivers greater speed and efficiency than typical relational databases.

The q Programming Language

Integrated Programming Language

Operates directly on the data, removing the need to ship query results to other applications for analysis.

Native Time Series Functionality

Native support for time-series operations vastly improves the speed and flexibility of queries, aggregation, joins, and analysis of business information.

Streaming and Historical Combined

It provides the ability to query streaming and disk-based data as a single database without losing speed or amending code.

Interpreted

Optimizes resources and reduces execution time as all data and functions reside in the in-memory workspace.
