Summary

  • Real-time streaming data will become increasingly valuable and important for companies, with the volume of data exploding, making it hard for firms to analyse it in real-time.
  • The New York Stock Exchange has partnered with Redpanda, who use Apache Kafka streaming technology to move its financial market data to the AWS cloud, to enhance its real-time data offerings to its customers.
  • Using Redpanda’s C++-based streaming platform, the NYSE can now analyse data in a more flexible and quicker manner, with Vinil Bhandari, head of cloud and full-stack engineering at NYSE, saying it is 4-5x faster in its data delivery when compared to competitors.
  • The success of the platform has highlighted the importance of data streaming for AI applications, such as agent coordination, and the need for organisations to have an efficient, cloud-based data strategy in place for the future.
