IFS
develops QuoteSpeed WebStation for Tenfore utilising IFS Quaser Framework
Technology. QuoteSpeed WebStation is a fully featured market data terminal that
is accessible through a standard web browser. It offers all the functionality
and content of a professional workstation combined with the ease of
browser-based access and works across a standard Internet connection.
QuoteSpeed WebStation does not require any expensive
infrastructure that is typically associated with market data systems, such as
dedicated servers and distribution platforms. Thanks to this, it can serve as a
cost-effective market data workstation solution for a wide range of off-floor
users.
Customisation - QuoteSpeed WebStation is an
extremely flexible solution that can be adapted to meet any number of client
requirements. Colour schemes, graphics, content and even functionality can be
adapted to each individual client request, thereby allowing you to offer
QuoteSpeed WebStation as a fully branded bespoke solution for either internal
usage or a solution to be redistributed to your customers.
Technology - QuoteSpeed WebStation is a genuine
browser based workstation - it does not require any software installation and
uses standard Internet browsers such as Microsoft Internet Explorer. Users can
connect to QuoteSpeed WebStation using even low-speed Internet connections and
they do not require any network or firewall configuration - data streams into
the application seamlessly.
Functionality - QuoteSpeed WebStation offers a
wide range of functionality including user-defined watch lists, sophisticated
charting, pre-built screens including index triggers screens, option overviews,
level 2 (full and market depth) and advanced portfolio functionality. Users can
size individual windows and screens to their exact requirements and save these
'workspaces'. All of this adds up to a tool that can greatly aid users
productivity.
Content - All of the content within QuoteSpeed
WebStation is sourced from the Tenfore data feed. This clean and fast data feed
covers a wide range of major exchanges around the globe as well as indices and
related content and news. Clients can pick and choose the market and news
coverage they require including mixtures of real time and delayed content
within the same package.
Gordon Bloor Chief Executive of Tenfore commented:
''IFS were an obvious partner of choice due to their strong
pedigree providing real-time data delivery infrastructure across the internet
to drive fully functional browser based products. Based on this proven
technology QuoteSpeed Webstation provides a professional market data
workstation while overcoming the requirements for expensive infrastructure
associated with traditional services and the connectivity issues normally
associated with 'thin technology products''
