 Capture,
manage and analyze millions of real-time ticks as well as
terabytes of historical tick data with real-time analysis
results.
Process hundreds of thousands of records per second -- keep up with peak volumes on
any exchange.
Combine real-time and historical
data in a single database. There's no need to discard in-memory
data at the end of the day--with kdb+tick, it takes about
a minute to store a day's worth of ticks in memory.
Write
sophisticated time-series analyses for in-memory and historical
data.
Built in feed handlers include
Reuters, Tibco and Bloomberg, and connecting new data
feeds takes a few minutes (with java code) or a few hours (with
C code).
Sample schemas include taq (trades
and quotes to match kdb+taq), lvl2 (Nasdaq Level II quotes),
futures, FX.
Defining new schemas and arranging
the feed handlers takes a few minutes to a few hours, depending
on the complexity of the schema.
Operate on 64-bit hardware. |
