The partnership will deliver a solution that offers unique and customizable visibility into real-time and historical trading data for the financial services industry.

Sybase, Inc. recently announced that it has partnered with SL Corporation, a provider of real-time monitoring, analytics and visualization software, to deliver a solution that offers unique and customizable visibility into real-time and historical trading data for the financial services industry. The solution combines RAP – The Trading Edition, Sybase’s recently launched next-generation market data analytics platform, with RTView, SL’s business activity monitoring (BAM) platform enabling risk managers and quantitative analysts to make better trading and portfolio decisions with less risk through timelier, more holistic market insight.

RAP – The Trading Edition and RTView have been certified to work together so customers can achieve immediate results. The solution is able to integrate massive amounts of historical trade and risk data, as well as real-time data feeds and complex event processing (CEP) streams. This unique and completely customizable view into real-time and historical data across the trade lifecycle provides quantitative analysts and risk managers with previously unachievable operational visibility.

“The capital markets industry is highly competitive. To predict price movements and act upon opportunities while mitigating risk, quantitative analysts and risk managers must compare time-critical market data in context with historical trends,” said Dr. Raj Nathan, Chief Marketing Officer at Sybase. “This combined solution delivers real-time opportunity and risk management via an interactive dashboard interface to allow sophisticated risk analysis pre- or post-trade, as well as allowing the development of more refined and risk-aware algorithms.”
