Bloomberg Market Data Feed Goes Live on AWS

Bloomberg’s real-time market data feed B-PIPE has been made available on the cloud via Amazon Web Services (AWS), according to a story in The Trade news. The move gives clients access to the same market data available through the Bloomberg Terminal without any change to the data. Clients can simultaneously stream data from 35 million instruments across all asset classes, including data aggregated from more than 330 exchanges. Bloomberg said that data is a vital part of the decision-making process for the front-office, requiring flexible and scalable ways to access content and the computing power to consume analytics in a secure, scalable, and cost-effective way. Through a common application programming interface (API), B-PIPE clients can deploy a single application on-premised via hosted, or on the cloud, without capacity limitations and the need for costly telecommunications links.
