The Market Data Cloud @ SIFMA

Subscribe to our newsletter

Like many of you, I’ll be at SIFMA next week. I have a full schedule of meetings on Tuesday and Wednesday, but on Thursday I am at the A-Team booth (#2101) in the Grand Ballroom all morning – from 9am to Noon. So come by and say hello. Also, on Wednesday, I am taking part in a panel session in the conference with the title “Market Data from the Clouds.” It’s at 10.15am in the Madison Suite, and will be moderated by Joel York of Xignite. Other panelists are: Stephane Dubois, also of Xignite, Peter Cohen from Amazon Web Services, Peter Hald from BGCantor and Jonathan Thursby from CME Group. More info after the jump …

There’s also more on the Market Data Cloud in an article I contributed to the latest A-Team Insight Quarterly, copies of which will be available at the show. Oh, and don’t forget the very informal “Brits on the Street” gathering at Connolly’s on 54th on Monday evening. All welcome. No doubt there will be lots of debate about the recent World Cup games.
