DefconQ x Databento Meetup - The Market Data Provider You Wish Always Existed
There Is No KDB Without Market Data
Let’s be honest: there is no KDB/Q without market data.
You can build the cleanest tickerplant in the world, design elegant schemas, optimise queries until they scream, and architect the perfect stack, but without data flowing into it, it’s all just a very expensive and slightly nerdy sculpture.
Market data is the lifeblood of every serious KDB/Q system. It’s where the story begins. And yet, for something so fundamental, getting access to market data as an individual developer has historically been ... painful.
That’s exactly why I’m excited to announce that DefconQ and Databento are teaming up for an upcoming Meetup in London, a community event for quants, financial engineers, developers, and anyone working with market data who wants to see what happens when market data stops being a headache and starts becoming something you can actually work with.
