kdb+ for 32bit Linux-ARM

Community Support
1

We’ve made a 32-bit Linux-ARM version of kdb+ available for educational use. It can be downloaded from the kx web site at the same location as the other non-commercial downloads:

http://kx.com/software-download.php

Note that as an educational version it has no support and will not recognise kdb+ license files, i.e. it will always run in PLAY mode. At the moment we have no plans to make an optimised, production version.

The build targets ARMv6, full hardware floating point, vfp capable chips. For example this includes Calxeda, the Raspberry Pi and the Samsung Chromebook 3.

Is this no longer available ?
I tried looking for it at the URL below and seems missing ? ( I have installed used ARM version before, so must have been removed recently ? )

Thanks

I was also looking for the ARM version and couldn’t see it. Is it still available?

no, not for the moment. When interest in arm picks up commercially we might revisit.

thanks

If you want a small device that runs q, then you can always get an Intel Galileo for the price of two RPis. Is Arduino compatible, has Mini-PCIe port, runs x86 binaries.

or you can compile kona on your ARM devices: https://github.com/kevinlawler/kona  (its not q/k4 but gets a few things done)
