Introduction

Trill is a high-performance one-pass in-memory streaming analytics engine from Microsoft Research. It can handle both real-time and offline data, and is based on a temporal data and query model. Trill can be used as a streaming engine, a lightweight in-memory relational engine, and as a progressive query processor (for early query results on partial data).

Getting Started

1. Of course, the sources are right here!
2. You can get binaries from our NuGet feed.
3. You can also check out samples of Trill usage at our samples repository.
