Hi,

Is there anyone who has used OpenFAST FIX/FAST implementation on production level systems to receive market data from various Liquidity providers? Please advice. Also, what are the other alternative implementations (preferably Java) that can be considered.

Looking forward to your responses.

Regards, Anand

Hi,

Yes, we use OpenFAST in production to connect to SIX Swiss Exchange.
They stream their market data via FAST and we have very good experience with it.

Cheers,
George.

Hi George,

Thanks for the information. Did you consider any other FAST implementation apart from OpenFAST? Also, can you give us details about latency, performance etc.,

Thanks,

Anand

We started using OpenFAST in 2008 (going live in 2009) and there were not many Java implementations at the time - so we did not consider any alternatives. Lasalletech had been very involved in FAST from the beginning, so we trusted them.

For performance, we process more than 10,000 updates per second in production, but I don’t have exact performance statistics. For that, you could best ask the discussion forum directly (http://www.openfast.org/).
