Kx Systems, based in Palo Alto, California, has updated its data analysis offering.

Kdb+ version 3.0 will enable financial institutions to store large amounts of data, while improving processing speeds and supporting WebSockets, globally unique identifiers (GUIDs), and universally unique identifiers (UUIDs), says Simon Garland, chief strategist at Kx.

"This enhancement in v3.0 simplifies the design and implementation of large systems, which have to handle more than a trillion records, allowing for a more elegant architecture," he says.

"Managing multiple servers across different countries and continents can be a challenge and requires some complex programming. UUIDs make this much more straightforward, as individual records can be uniquely identified.

"Combined with the speed enhancements in v3.0 and the ease of handling hundreds of billions of records, more efficient systems can be designed. This is an important step forward, especially in the face of ever-growing data volumes," he says.
