CJC Attendees

Presentation by Peter Williams, Chief Technology Officer, CJC.

A commonly held opinion about real-time market data in the cloud is that multicast is either not feasible, performant, or does not work. While opinions differ about the role of multicast in the next generation of data delivery solutions, it is undeniable that several critical current use cases rely on it. Subsequently, CJC has tested several different deployments in-depth and will present our thoughts, findings, and observations to the FISD attendees.

Panel moderated by Peter Williams, Chief Technology Officer, CJC.

Market Data in the Cloud is something all of us within the FISD community have been talking about for a few years now. There is some maturity to this topic, some hard tangible reality to it. Market Data in the Cloud is eminently doable in 2022. However, the question of REAL TIME market data in the Cloud is not so mature a topic and arguable not something that has, as yet been ‘done’ in anger. REAL-TIME is a broad concept, and it encompasses a spectrum of latencies. The discussion here is about what has been done already, what outstanding demands from the business have not been addressed, what technical/engineering obstacles stand in that way – and what magnificent solutions are almost on hand, just over the midterm horizon – or still distant hopes.
