How JuliaDB works

JuliaDB is a pure Julia analytical database. It makes loading large datasets and playing with them easy and fast. JuliaDB needs to support a number of features: releational database operations, quickly parsing text files, parallel computing, data storage and compression. This talk is a bottom-up look at the construction of JuliaDB. We will talk about the scope and implementation of underlying building block packages, namely IndexedTables, TextParse, Dagger, OnlineStats and PooledArrays. This talk should help beginners get started using, as well as hacking on JuliaDB!
