The toe-dip into the public cloud that your clients have been asking for!

Financial software and service providers have been as challenged as their bank and asset management clients by the increasingly restrictive and costly evolution of the financial market data industry. Each data set translates to months of costly system integration, arduous licensing management, and ongoing data and systemic risk for providers and their most valued clients. Xignite today announced the launch of a Channel Partner Program to help data providers, tech firms, independent software vendors, and professional service providers deliver innovative, client-driven, cloud-hosted data solutions.

As financial firms undergo digital and cloud transformation strategies, Xignite channel partners leverage Xignite’s expert custom architecture to host market data in the public cloud. Xignite Channel Partners build their businesses around the needs of their clients, prioritize technology, and have existing customers that purchase market data from legacy providers. Initial channel partners addressing capital markets cloud initiatives include Nasdaq, ChartIQ and Streamdata.io.
