The fastest, most cost-effective delivery of global market data

FAST FACTSWhat is it?

SuperFeed is NYSE Technologies’ fully managed, hosted, market data feed service offering global coverage and delivered with the lowest latency, to reduce total cost of ownership (TCO).

Who is it for?

Traders and investors requiring global market data coverage, scaling from the needs of individual trading desks and algorithmic applications, up to enterprise-wide requirements.

What does it provide?

The fastest delivery of market data from global execution venues, without the cost and complexity of managing in-house ticker plants and performing data feed maintenance. It enables clients to access high performance data cost effectively and quickly.

Market infrastructure is evolving at a pace that even the most technology-savvy fi nancial institutions fi nd challenging. New execution venues are popping up everywhere fragmenting liquidity and creating cross-dependencies between primary and derivative marketplaces. The move to fast markets and trading automation is cutting response times and increasing data volumes.

SuperFeedTM is a fully managed and hosted ticker plant, leveraging NYSE Technologies’ best-of-breed solutions, including Data FabricTM, its excellence in data feed handler development and its investment in state-of-the-art data centres.

Customer ChallengesCustomers benefi t from NYSE Technologies’ continual investment and R&D in high performance technologies, while enjoying the economics of a fully hosted and managed service.

Latency

Microseconds are the difference between winning and losing in the global fi nancial markets, and access to the lowest latency data is imperative and not just for high frequency traders anymore. This requires continual monitoring of direct feeds from trading venues, and constant maintenance of the network and data processing elements of trading systems.

Cost of Infrastructure Maintenance

Continued monitoring and maintenance requires signifi cant investment in IT infrastructure and people. Equipment upgrades to cope with the continued explosion in market data volumes adds considerably to expense, while ongoing database and software updates to cope with symbology and data feed specifi cation changes is a money pit, simply to maintain the status quo in latency profi le.

Access to New Venues

Market participants are continually seeking access to new trading venues, in some cases as they expand into new asset classes, but also to execute complex strategies and to take advantage of arbitrage opportunities. But the costs of supporting new feeds – including connectivity, software development and integration, and testing – are considerable and the endeavour is time consuming, often meaning short-term market advantage cannot be leveraged.

Solution Benefi tsSuperFeed provides broad access to both consolidated and direct market data from major U.S., European and Asian markets in a single normalised format.
