Just to set expectations while this package is decently stable and used by a number of people, both commercially and in the open source, it is basically in maintenance mode at this point in time. The intention a few years back was to build a complete analytical database on top of Julia, but have it be a mostly independent project. That vision didn't quite materialize, partly because not enough people wanted to do distributed analytical work (often a single big box is enough, particularly with a language as fast as Julia) and partly because the main developer left to pursue a PhD. I wouldn't be surprised if it got revived in the future, but for the moment, it's basically just the distributed tabular computing part (which is useful if you have that problem, but more limited than the name might imply).
