Unveiling Data's Potential

SPECIAL REPORT

Single Data Set. Multiple Analytic Solutions.

Now, more than ever, exponential increases in trading volumes and velocity are threatening profitability and growth in capital markets. The sheer volume and complexity of market data is overwhelming capital market firms' ability to analyze and act quickly enough to maximize profits and returns.

If that's not enough, the increasing need for both fast transactional performance and complex analytics has exceeded the capabilities of traditional architectures to service the different requirements across the trade lifecycle, resulting in inconsistent views of data, excess latency, redundant data and inefficient use of resources.

An innovative solution for today's extreme market requirements

Sybase RAP-The Trading Edition is the only analytics platform flexible and powerful enough to support shared access to consolidated data used across the trade lifecycle. It offers the following:

• High-performance quantitative analytics

• Real-time trade analytics

• Intra-day risk analytics

• Regulation-driven analytics

Multiple Audience Requirements. One Powerful Solution.

Designed specifically for today's high-volume, high-velocity trading environments, RAP-The Trading Edition accelerates varying analytics requirements throughout the trade lifecycle in a single platform that addresses both low latency and historical data needs.

Benefits for Key Audiences:

Traders: Increase responsiveness to market opportunities through faster, more complete analysis of market data, utilizing both historical and real-time market feeds.

Risk Managers: Gain ability to monitor balance sheet exposure hourly to reduce firm-wide risk.

Quantitative Analysts: Run powerful quantitative models against years' worth of time-series market data, trading histories and reference data, with complex analyses running in minutes instead of hours.

Compliance Officers: Seamlessly audit the trading flow to meet the latest compliance requirements.

RAP-The Trading Edition enables capital market firms to capture and consolidate high volumes of market data feeds by efficiently storing multiple years of trade data in real time-compressing stored data by up to 70 percent and storing up to petabytes of data while delivering 10 to 100 times faster analytics performance than traditional data management platforms. n
