WebStreamer has easy access to the breadth of Financial Market Data with features such as User Permissioning, Authentication, Reporting, Code mapping for data normalization, multi-provider that are available in the MFDS data warehouse.
The front-end can intelligently decide which Data Centre to connect to, either a primary Active or to a Passive Data Centre, as well as having multiple vendor options without the need for manual intervention.
With at least two data centre's in place configured as Active-Active, full business continuity can be provided, the front-end of the push clusters logically manages the efficient balancing between the two data centres.
The platform can scale to fit different capacity needs and/or delivery requirements, to re-utilise the service that is being provided to systems beyond a single dealer platform. This is possible given that the management of the service is done via a front-end tag with all of the intelligence of MFDS.
Since MFDS is a Vendor agnostic Data Aggregation solution, the possibility of using two or more vendors does not complicate delivery.
