for: hedgefunds banks manufacturers formula1 ..
why: 100 times faster than polars datatable biqquery redshift databricks snowflake ..
who: arthur whitney+ thanks to
e.l. whitney[1920-1966] dad:multiple putnam winner(beat john nash every time)
k.e. iverson[1920-2004] advisor:APL turing award'79
john cocke [1925-2002] advisor:RISC turing award'87
benchmarks: same machine. same data. same queries. (apples-to-apples)
h20: 1Billion rows k is about 100 times faster than polars datatable ..
taxi: 1Billion rows k is about 100 times faster than biggie shifty sparky ..
taq: 1000Billion rows only k (incl. kx.com) can do the asof joins in our lifetime.
stac: 2000Billion rows only k (incl. kx.com) can do these queries.
time - user and machine - is expensive. pandas and polars are free - god bless them - so
1,000 rows: use excel
1,000,000 rows: use polars
1,000,000,000 rows: use k
1,000,000,000,000 rows: only k
compareaboutreal-sql(k) is consistently 100 times faster (or more) than
redshift, bigquery, snowflake, spark, mongodb, postgres, ..
same data. same queries. same hardware. anyone can run the scripts.
