ACTIV's systems have been developed from the
ground up specifically to meet the needs of
market data consumers today. We do
not have any legacy technology.
ACTIV has developed an ultra-high-performance middleware platform
providing unrivalled
throughput and reliability. This is the
underpinning of all of our software components.
We support every
major modern CPU family with specific
optimizations for SMT, SMP and NUMA architectures.
ActivMiddleware offers a platform abstraction
layer for Win32, Win64, Linux and Solaris on
x86, x86-64, Itanium, SPARC and PowerPC. A complete matrix is given
here.
Data is
delivered in a compact but fully self-describing
form. This allows content changes to be made
without software upgrades, massively reducing
ownership costs.
Our APIs are
clean and intuitive, offering a fast learning
curve and rapid integration with existing
systems. Data is represented in a
fully object-oriented way to permit easy
manipulation. Novel features include
in-line database navigation, optional
server-side filtering and true field-level
requests.
