InfoDyne's Latency Service Product
InfoDyne's Latency Service, an extension of InfoDyne’s existing Managed Service offering, combines a unique and robust set of core product capabilities, tools/utilities, and other managed services necessary to help ensure market data is being delivered to customers’ applications with the lowest possible latency. The service is an extension of the remote managed services made available for InfoDyne’s ticker plant platform client installations, TPS+Plus.
The core product component capabilities of the Latency Service include:
- Publishing latency envelope metrics that are actively collected by SNMP monitoring tools and viewable by administrators through InfoDyne's Administrative Desktop (ITAD).
- Reporting hop-by-hop latency information to the end user applications while messages arrive as well as reporting when latency thresholds are exceeded through status message events.
As well as these tools and utilities:
- IT Latency Monitor (ITLM) - A utility that can be deployed throughout the system at key measurement points to report end-to-end and hop-by-hop latency through SNMP metrics and the ITAD.
- IT Latency Scripts (ITLS) - Scripts that perform continuous monitoring of incoming data sources (i.e. Ports) and collect this information for further analysis and reporting purposes.
- IT Latency Reports (ITLR) - Utilities that generate reports like the one below that provide a historic summary of latency for a given measurement point over a period of time (e.g. intra-day).
The core product functionality, along with the tools and utilities that comprise the Latency Service, can also be utilized by customers to monitor and manage latency within their own systems and applications.
Managed Service activities that supplement the Latency Monitoring Service available from InfoDyne include:
- Installing, configuring, and maintaining products, tools, and utilities necessary to support the Latency Service.
- Monitoring and recording latency metrics throughout the system, including feed latencies
- Compiling and producing Latency Reports and reviewing them with the customer on a daily or weekly basis.
