Latency is often discussed, but not easily understood. Its definition will likely remain in debate for some time. Yet its impact on market risk and operational risk is felt in quantifiable terms. This characteristic can occur in various ways and at various points throughout the enterprise. It is generally measured as the period of time it takes a packet to travel from source to destination or the amount of time one part of the system waits for another part to catch up. Longer wait times translate into lower application value, regardless of scale. Therefore, minimizing latency is a primary objective in deploying critical trading applications. During this information-packed webcast, we'll explore what it really means to you and your organization. You will hear directly from Larry Tabb of TABB Group, where he will review the latest research into the implications of low latency.
After reviewing the webcast, we suggest you download a complimentary copy of the recent TABB Group Vision Note (a $3,000 value) called, The Value of a Millisecond: Finding the Optimal Speed of a Trading Infrastructure.
