announce anApama partnership with CQG. A quite significant player in the Futures trading market,
CQG offers real time quotation,charting and technical analysis tools. Viathis new partnership, CQG users can now automaticallyexecute trades that have been signaled from within CQG's technical analysis models,leveraging algorithms that are offered via the Apama CEP platform.
A keyelement in the partnership is the deployment model. Apama is being hosted in the CQG infrastructuresuch that their users do not have to install Apama locally in order to accessthe benefits of the integrated offering. They can select and parameterize the executionalgorithms via Apama dashboards and gain very low latency execution through CQG's co-located facilities at majorglobal exchanges.
Dealslike this signal the growing interest in Apama. Part of the appeal is the flexibility of the underlying Apama CEP platform (and its supporting tools). That flexibility encompasses different assetclasses, the different application use cases that are needed to support thoseasset classes and, as is evidenced here, different deployment models.
Shown below is a CQG screen, with the Apama dashboard component highlighted.
