Product Description

QuickTick captures high-speed, high-volume, streaming trade and price data from a variety of sources. It provides a range of built-in views, and calculations derived from the data. It also allows you to define your own custom views and calculations. External applications can then query those views and calculations, receiving real time updates as they happen. QuickTick is highly and (as importantly) easily configurable. Incoming data sources, along with the venues and fields to be stored are easily set up. Calculations and views are equally easy to configure, and may be added to and removed dynamically. An aggregated view of trade data for multiple venues is available giving a benchmark on best execution across all possible venues. QuickTick calculations are re-evaluated whenever input events relevant to the calculations occur.  Any calculation depending on that data is updated, and triggers an output event to waiting subscribers as necessary. This ensures that results are published in real time, as the relevant, triggering update is received. To deliver near-instant response times, QuickTick stores the data it receives, and its derived, calculated data, in memory. The amount of data that can be stored by QuickTick as a whole is thus a factor of the number of fields of interest and the volume of updates to them. These features enable fast and responsive analysis on cached and streaming trade and price data.
