Kx Platform AMD?

Community Support

Hi there

We need to run Kx Platform on a mac M1 under Parallels.  

Issues that arise in installation

  • ARM 64-bit isn’t a defined architecture in the platform install scripts

  • q binary included in the distro is intel-only.  However the free downloadable version includes ‘LINUX-ARM’ as a supported architecture.  Is there a ARM version of 64-bit q?  If so we could give this a go.

cheers

Hi Simon,

Thanks for raising this query on the Community portal, and apologies in the delayed response.

Regarding the KX Platform installer, ARM 64-bit isn’t defined as it’s not a supported architecture at this time.

We do have a ARM 64-bit version of kdb for Linux and macOS for v4.1t that can be downloaded from downloads.kx.com  - note  this is a test version and is not intended, nor supported for production usage. 

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

David
