Because of a scheduling conflict and the unavailability of Stephen Taylor, panelist of the well-known ArrayCast, I had the privilege of stepping in for my third appearance, this time as a (guest) panelist. Or, as the former ice hockey player in me would say, I got called up as the backup goalie.

In this episode, we welcomed Ashok Reddy, CEO of KX, who shared insights on the newly released KDB-X Community Edition. We covered the motivations behind this move, the current state of the community edition, and what’s coming next on the roadmap.

If you’re curious about KDB/Q, what the new community edition brings to the table, and our broader discussion, I highly recommend tuning in.

Last week, I had the honour of making my first solo appearance on the ArrayCast podcast, a show dedicated to everything array programming, and a tribute to the legacy of Kenneth E. Iverson, the legendary creator of APL. While I’ve previously been part of a group discussion during last year’s Iverson College event, this was my first time flying solo.

As many of you know, KDB/Q is a direct descendant of APL, so it naturally finds a regular place in ArrayCast conversations. Over the years, the podcast has featured some of the most respected names in the KDB/Q community, including Nick Psaris, Attila Vrabecz, Jonny Press and Stevan Apter, which makes it an even greater privilege to join this esteemed list of guests and contribute to such a meaningful initiative.
