Quantitative trading data is different. Market data is fast, voluminous and complicated, and the tech landscape continues to evolve, merge, and morph quickly. Regulation reigns.

The challenge, of course, is time. The time between a market micro-movement and the action that must be taken. The time to build new trading strategies that out-alpha your competitors. The time it takes to build systems that implement new ideas yet comply with ever-increasing compliance demands.
