kola

a Polars Interface to kdb+/q

Why kola

  • open source and free for the latest Linux, macOS, and Windows
  • the most efficient/fastest way to
    • query data from kdb+
    • send non-kdb data to kdb+
  • extremely fast dataframe operations powered by polars
  • support the latest Python version
  • core parts (uncompression and deserialization) are in Rust
    • c level performance
    • better memory management, 30%-50% less memory when querying data from kdb
    • better deserialization performance using parallel computing
  • a much bigger and more active polars community to support the dataframe interface
  • most machine learning packages are going to support polars directly
  • there is no need to know kdb+/q knowledge for Python developers
