When market data first came to the cloud we talked about cloud feeds and APIs to get data. That requires cloud programming skills; we’re past that. Data vendors and exchanges have done some of the “heavy-lifting” to interface their data to visualised cloud tools: With Docusign and a Github script you can sign-up and receive NASDAQ data – within an hour. Bloomberg and BBVA have collaborated to deliver the Bpipe feed to their equity desks using Kubernetes. FactSet data can be accessed through Snowflake increasing physical and analytic reach. What are some use-cases? How is this helping to identify new investment ideas, reach new subscribers and improve workload for existing customers? — FISD is the global forum of choice for industry participants to discuss, understand, and facilitate the evolution of financial information for the key players in the value chain including consumer firms, third party groups, and data providers.
