Managed kdb Insights databases

A Managed kdb Insights database acts as a highly available and scalable repository to store your kdb data files so that they can be used with one or more historical database (HDB) clusters in FinSpace kdb. Data in a database may consist of either kdb objects, kdb splayed tables, or kdb partitioned tables. These represent different types of kdb table structures and each must follow a prescribed file and path layout. You can learn more about each of these structures here.

Data is loaded into a database by defining a changeset, which lets you import a file or set of files into a database. The files in the kdb database are placed into logical paths called the Database paths. Creating a database does not automatically load any data. You must add data to the kdb database through changesets.
