How do you harness the true power of data? By using an application that draws together information from every source you need. One that minimises latency, maximises reliability, and simplifies management. ConteX 4 is a multi-vendor solution that makes data work harder for you.
ConteX MCS is the best, market-proven, multivendor contribution solution available. It takes your data from a range of sources, including your pricing engine or market data platform, transforms it into appropriate formats and protocols, and publishes it to a variety of destinations including information vendors, exchanges and internal users.
Faster DataWith markets changing more quickly than ever, you need to move data around your business fast. Super low latency means that with ConteX 4 you're delivering end-to-end updates in tenths of a millisecond.
24 Hours. 6.2 Billion Updates
You can rely on ConteX 4 to handle increasing data volumes. We've benchmarked ConteX 4 at 6.2 billion updates per day to three separate destinations with no conflation on a basic Windows server.
Conflation Efficiency
Are your vendors throttling capacity? ConteX 4 actively manages conflation, and prioritises data so that your internal systems are always up-to-date. Our comparative tests show that it can conflate data 10 times more efficiently than ConteX 3.
Infinite Capacity
ConteX 4 dynamically creates records in response to demand. The only limit to its scope is your system's memory.
Carbon Control
With ConteX 4, you gain greater performance on the same hardware, reducing the need for more servers, and cutting your carbon footprint. This extends the life of your systems to support your business in the future.
FEATURES
Derived Data
We make it easy. Create new fields on-the-fly, deploy spreads and moving averages, and concatenate fields in real time. The ConteX eXpresso expression language contains over 40 familiar spreadsheet-style functions.
Validation Module
You gain control over the management and processing of contributions. Apply rules to ensure correct prices are sent, spreads are managed and limits are controlled.
Data Formatting
ConteX 4 includes a huge range of options for formatting, justification, rounding, scaling and value-mapping to ensure that outbound data is presented exactly as you need it to be.
Field History
ConteX 4 maintains up to 255 previous values in memory for each field, allowing calculations and validation based on changes to a field's value (e.g. moving average or price direction).

Most changes to the ConteX 4 configuration (such as adding and removing records and fields, adding new record sets or changing field formatting) can be made whilst the system is running, thus allowing new business needs to be responded to quickly and without impacting existing contributions.
