ACTIV One Platform (AOP)
ACTIV One Platform (AOP) is our next generation market data management solution, offering enhanced latency and throughput characteristics for direct exchange feed processing. As the industry’s first data model agnostic platform, AOP solves problems of enterprise data integration and distribution in a fully vendor-neutral way. AOP manages collection, distribution, and control of all manner of vendor feeds, direct exchange feeds, and nonmarket data content sets for any application from performance trading to static data management.
No firm can allow complete dependency on one vendor, and no customer wants to be locked into expensive sole-supplier relationships. AOP works in conjunction with our EDIS toolkit to let you manage competing data sources and integrates with your existing platforms. Own the playing field and get the best of each of your content sources in an open and robust real time messaging platform
Enterprise Data Integration Services (EDIS)
EDIS is a suite of integration and interoperability components that allow you to integrate data sources and platforms from different providers in a vendor-neutral way. EDIS can help you manage and enhance complex IT environments with minimum effort and project risk
Example functions for which EDIS provides off-the-shelf components are:
–Importing third-party sources such as ACTIV, Refinitiv, Bloomberg.
–Integrating ACTIV data into existing distribution platforms, e.g. TREP or OpenMAMA.
–Protocol conversions e.g. to or from FIX.
–Permission data across multiple sources based on ACTIV’s content licensing system or Refinitiv DACS. Other third-party or in-house systems can be integrated using the service model.
–Data mapping and symbology cross-referencing. ACTIV supports Magtia or its own mapping engine. Again, alternatives can be integrated via the service model.
Historical Data Services
