Built for the cloud

KX Insights runs natively on all leading hyperscale cloud platforms and can leverage thousands of existing cloud native services. With access to the lowest cost storage tiers such as Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3), Microsoft Azure Blob and Google Cloud Storage, KX Insights also offers much lower infrastructure and maintenance costs than standard deployments.

Highly integrated using preferred development tools

With support for Kubernetes, KX Insights can run fully on cloud or in hybrid and on-premise environments. It will also support SQL for seamless integration and interoperability with other services and applications including database systems, visualization packages and business intelligence solutions. AWS Kinesis and Google Cloud PubSub integration will offer deeper workflow integration and automated decision making.

Simple to use

Built on kdb+, the world’s fastest time-series database, KX Insights can be configured and running in just a few clicks. With a modular design and simple subscription pricing, users pay only for what they need. And because it’s cloud based, there’s no waiting for upgrades.

Adds Buggy: “KX Insights is a game-changer for organisations seeking to make decisions based on real-time data to increase the performance and efficiency of their operations.
