"Following the successful launch of our PowerData Feed solution last year, we started to receive a lot of inquiries from developers of proprietary real-time analytics and trading engines looking for a low-overhead solution for streaming quotes on selected instruments," said Janet Crowley, executive vice president of SunGard Data Management Solutions. "PowerData Stream combines the efficiencies of our ASP environment with the flexibility of our PowerData Feed to create this cost-effective quote delivery solution."
PowerData Stream provides streaming quotes from the complete range of sources that are processed by SunGard Data Management Solutions, including domestic and international exchanges. With the processing, exchange reporting, and resilience managed by SunGard, developers need only to connect to the service to begin receiving quotes. Data can be streamed both real-time and delayed, and can be delivered over the Internet or through dedicated lines. Quote streams can easily be set-up using XML messages, with streams sent out in the bandwidth-efficient PowerData IP protocol.
