+# 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](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Trill/).
