Cascading Cache
|
Wombat product for transferring data streams between different networks and sites.
|
| Cross Platform Bridge |
A variation of the Cascading Cache that can be used to provide a bridge between different real-time market data infrastructures, formats or symbologies. For example, to push real-time data from direct feeds on a high performance Wombat back bone in Wombat object based format onto a legacy Triarch infrastructure in a record based format. |
| DBAC |
Database Agnostic Consumer. Generic MAMDA extension for inserting real-time data into database or tick capture products. |
| DBAP |
Database Agnostic Publisher. A product framework used to create a data feed composed of fundamental or value added data pushed or pulled from a variety of time series or relational database systems. |
Distributed Ticker Plant
|
The term 'Distributed Ticker Plant' refers to the combination of direct and aggregated feed handlers and value added servers that make up a single logical ticker plant. |
| LBM |
Latency Busters Messaging. The messaging middleware product used as the basis for the Wombat Transport market data transport layer. It was developed in a joint venture with our strategic partner 29West (see www.29west.com). |
| MAMA |
Middleware Agnostic Messaging API. Platform independent message based generic pub/sub API. MAMA currently supports the Tibco RV, LBM and Elvin messaging layers. It is available in C/C++ and Java flavors. |
| MAMDA |
Middleware Agnostic Market Data API. High level object based client side API with market data semantics and structures such as order books, option chains and fundamental data caching. |
| MDRV |
Market Data Rendezvous. Wombat platform with market data semantics based on Tibco Rendezvous software. |
| Multi-Transport publisher |
A variation of the Wombat PAPA API that allows a single publisher to publish onto multiple logical transports. This allows any supported infrastructure to be divided into multiple logical transports to separate users with different consumption profiles (for example to separate small consumers from large consumers subscribing to the complete universe of securities) |
| PAPA |
Platform Agnostic Publishing API. A platform independent publishing API framework, including modules for caching, fault tolerance, value added calculations, administrative controls, etc. PAPA provides the publishing framework for the feed handlers and other Wombat heavyweight publishers. |

| WADMIN |
Wombat Admin. Command line administration tool, used to manage Wombat modules interactively. Implements WAM. |
| WIMP |
Wombat In Memory Pub/sub. Internal interface for anonymous communication between Wombat modules. Makes it easy to create and pass data between objects. Fast and memory efficient. |
Wombat Message
|
The Wombat API for building and deconstructing market data messages. It combines tight compaction of data with record, object, order book, string, table and vector based messaging capabilities. (Initially compatible with TIBCO Rendezvous, Mantara Elvin and the Wombat Transport platforms.) |
