InfoDyne Deploys ARCA’s New FAST Multicast into Production at Multiple Customers

Friday, February 1st, 2008

InfoDyne Corporation, provider of direct exchange feed handlers and ticker plant technology, says multiple customers have deployed its solution for the new ArcaBook Multicast for Equities full depth Orderbook feed from NYSE Euronext. The new FAST version of the ArcaBook Equity feed has just been release by ARCA to replace its existing TCP/IP based datafeed. Message rates last quarter on NYSE’s ARCA Equites feed hit one second peaks of 108,000, while on Nasdaq’s INET feed message rates rose to five second peaks of 60,000. By migrating to multicast distribution, ARCA’s head end system can transmit the data once to all subscribers, as opposed to sending it individually via TCP/IP sessions to each and every customer, which can cause data latency, especially at peak times of the day.
