DefconQ meets KX - Mastering KDB+ Architecture - A Panel Discussion
· 8 min read
Recently, I had the pleasure of being invited by Michaela Woods to join her and Cynthia Faus Viadé on the KX LiveStream to discuss best practices in designing your KDB/Q Tick Architecture. We began by exploring the new KDB/Q Architecture course launched recently by KX, starting with a plain vanilla tick setup and gradually progressing to more advanced configurations. Our discussion covered a range of topics including Derived Analytics, Load Balancing and Gateways, Disaster Recovery, Slow Consumers and Chained Tickerplants, as well as Intraday Writedowns and Database Best Practices. Below is a summary of our discussion, or you can watch the recording of the livestream on YouTube.
