KX for Surveillance

Feedhandlers ingest the tick ata received directly from trading venues and market data sources.

The tickerplant receives, logs and publishes all real-time data downstream.

The real-time database captures all intraday data; and writes it to disk at end of day.

The historical database processes read historical data from disk and provide them to other processes.
