Abstract

Summary: In this talk, we will be explaining how to conduct analytics on extremely large datasets utilizing a time-series database. kdb+ is a high-performance, high volume database designed from the outset in anticipation of vast increases in data volumes. The database incorporates its own powerful query language, q, so that analytics can be run directly on the data, supporting real-time analysis of billions of records and fast access to terabytes of historical data. Learn how to use a relational time-series and columnar database as well as a tightly integrated query language capable of doing aggregations and consolidations on billions of streaming and real time historical records.
