Futures commission merchant Kyte Group has become the first ITRS Geneos user to move into production with the company’s Feed Latency Monitor, an addition to the Geneos real-time monitoring and performance management solution that can measure latency across a number of exchange feeds and alert users to delays or gaps in the feeds.
“The Value of a Millisecond” - the title of a widely quoted April 2008 white paper by my esteemed industry colleague Larry Tabb - is now as obsolete a discussion as is the Renault F1 car that graced its cover. In the world of low latency - just as in F1 - three years of innovation has reset the performance metrics that matter. Winners, and losers, and all that.
In a move that could establish an enabling technology for those interested in latency arbitrage, ITRS Group has released Feed Latency Monitor (FLM), a plug-in to its Geneos platform that lets users analyse relative latencies of real-time data feeds in real time.
The Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) is replacing manual processes for market data monitoring with Corvil’s latency management system, CorvilNet, in an effort to optimise its market data infrastructure for low latency. CBOE is believed to have looked at competitive products from companies such as NetScout, Niksun, Correlix and SeaNet, before selecting the Corvil solution to deploy in its market data path in order to monitor latency and bandwidth, and identify potential market data disruptions.
FSMLabs, a provider of real-time and timekeeping technology, has sold a number of its patents to Intellectual Ventures, a Bellevue, Washington-based business that invents, invests in invention and holds a large intellectual property (IP) portfolio.
