Since StreamBase's commercial launch in 2003, we've been giving audiences everywhere something to talk about! Here's a sample of some the commentary and views swirling around the industry about StreamBase's breakthrough technology. Analysts, press, investors, clients, partners, and many other influencers are excited about the business value we are delivering to enterprises everywhere.

  “Our team found that StreamBase combines the best of both worlds – we can deliver just as quickly as with an off the shelf product, but with StreamBase we have full control over the functionality and the flexibility to extend its use into other areas of our production environment. Our choice was cemented by the excellent performance of the StreamBase engine. This, together with the time to market and control that StreamBase provides, is a winning formula."

— Toby Young, Chief Technology Officer at City Index


 “For Cürex to lead the FX marketplace we must ensure we are developing FX trading technologies that will remain competitive in the future. This means our technology infrastructure must be built with best-of-breed solutions such as StreamBase that can be rapidly modified in response to tactical and structural changes in the FX market. With StreamBase we can update and test new algorithms in hours versus the days or weeks required by other solutions and this enables Cürex to quickly react to the ever changing needs of the market.”

William Dale, Chief Executive Officer at
Cürex Group

 “StreamBase was selected because it met all our requirements for a high-performance CEP platform for FX. Our requirement for a mature CEP platform that can connect to multiple FX market data sources, handle tens of thousands of events per second and at the same time offer high availability was addressed by StreamBase.”

Asif Adatia, Chief Information Officer at CMC Markets Plc.

 Our evaluation process started in mid-2008 when we started looking at the leading CEP companies. Our developers downloaded StreamBase and got to work developing a new algo trading system and were amazed at how easy it was to build applications.  After few months of testing StreamBase was the clear winner. The Kairos team consists of experienced Equity and FX traders who demand rapid time to market for their trading strategies and quant developers who need to be able to respond to those demands in real-time. We believe that StreamBase’s flexible visual development environment, multi-threaded scalable CEP servers and wide selection of Equities and FX connectivity options empowers our developers to keep up with the demands of an ever changing market.”

— Alberto Araujo, COO at Kairos Asset Management

CME Group is one of the most demanding technology environments in the world, processing millions of orders a day in milliseconds, and disseminating market data in a reliable and low latency manner is critical to our customers. Their high-performance multi-threaded server and easy to use modeling tools met our requirements and will enable the exchange to quickly react to the ever changing needs of our customers.

— Steve Goldman, Director, Enterprise Architecture, CME Group

"In our evaluation of CEP, StreamBase came out on top. We’re building a robust trading system using a platform approach – we are not just building an application.  In this context, StreamBase delivers a combination of high performance, high availability, and scalability via its multi-threaded server, and solid abstractions in the development tools that allow us to rapidly implement our trading strategies and market data management schemes.”

— Eric Pritchett, CEO, PhaseCapital

“The combination of StreamBase and Vertica enables us to get a low-latency, aggregated view of ‘everything that ticks’ in the increasingly complicated, fragmented, high-speed financial markets.  Their joint solution helped us get to market quickly and, more importantly, change our system quickly in response to new opportunities.  We save weeks to months with each market or analytic we add, and that helps us capture trading advantage while it’s most lucrative.  It enables our 24-hour global trading operations, and helps us optimize our market data licensing, all at once.”

— Justo Ruiz-Ferrer, Head of Trading Strategy Systems and Quantitative Development, BlueCrest

“Our StreamBase partnership allows firms such as RBCCM to rapidly devise algorithmic and quantitative strategies, which may require months to years of tick data to discover past patterns that may predict existing or future trading conditions without adding large amounts of latency.”

— Jeff Hudson, CEO, Vhayu


“There are three primary reasons StreamBase impresses me. First, time to market is key in financial services, and the StreamBase Studio™ environment allows us to get to market quickly with very little coding.  Second, StreamBase meets the high-performance demands of Wall Street – it can handle large amounts of data, quickly.  Finally, its multi-threaded architecture makes it very efficient – so StreamBase scales smoothly as the volumes in the market grow – it helps future-proof our trading infrastructure.”

Joseph Weisbord, Managing Director, BNY ConvergEx Group

"CEP has become increasingly important to IBM's customers in a number of markets. IBM is working strategically with StreamBase to meet these customer needs via solutions that integrate StreamBase's CEP engine with IBM's industry-leading data management products."

— Dr. Arvind Krishna, Vice President IBM Data Servers

"StreamBase Systems' Stream Processing Engine is a sophisticated event management product designed for time-sensitive applications, where pattern detection and response must occur in milliseconds."

Mary Knox, Research Director, Gartner

"After we evaluated the StreamBase CEP software, we quickly realized that partnering with them would cut our server development costs by multiple man years. Therefore, partnering with StreamBase was clearly the right choice to deliver on budget and on time."

Bill Dalton, Technical Director BioWare

"We are a strong believer in the current value and future impact of StreamBase's high-performance Complex Event Processing software and the substantial benefit it offers to the Intelligence Community and to our country. StreamBase is an exciting company delivering software that is powerful and sustainable, proven through the company's repeated successes in the commercial sector. In-Q-Tel is pleased to provide the Intelligence Community with access to StreamBase's platform for building next-generation stream processing applications."

Troy M. Pearsall, Executive Vice President of Technology Initiatives, In-Q-Tel

"NASA's Earth Science Data Processing mission required a sophisticated and extensible software platform to transform the large volume of multi-dimensional and multi-parameter scientific data. Based on our prior involvement with StreamBase, we found that the software could readily process and analyze the high volume of both real-time and historical environmental data — and transform that data into streaming real-time intelligence for NASA's end users and managers. With StreamBase, NASA can develop flexible, robust streaming applications with fast turnaround time and lower computing costs."

Dr. Alper Caglayan, President of Milcord

"StreamBase is a breakthrough technology that allows organizations to process and analyze huge data volumes and ensures that critical information doesn't drop on the floor. We're looking forward to helping our clients realize the tremendous business value behind adopting StreamBase as their core method for leveraging streaming data."

Dr. Carol Lundquist, Principal IT Consultant, Vision Systems & Technology, Inc. (VSTI)
