Hello,I am interested in learning more about the kdb+ platform, specificallythe various APIs that are available for realtime data acquisition andanalysis.What languages are supported for direct interfacing with kdb+? Isthere a Pythonic API for any of the stored data?If one were to implement say for example a Bayesian classifier orother machine learning method, what would be the optimal path be fordeveloping a native interface to the in-memory data stored by kdb+? Iassuming that the q language would be used for primary interfacing forthat data, are there any export, API, or wrappers with q for otherexternal language support?Last but not least, are there any embedded Linux system architecturescurrently supported by kdb+ other than x86-based architectures?Thanks in advance.
