TimeScape Event Services
TimeScape Event Services are responsible for managing the subscription and distribution of asynchronous data events within TimeScape.
The types of event that are currently supported by TimeScape are real-time data events that occur within event-enabled (tick-by-tick) drivers.
TimeScape Event Services provide the internal technical infrastructure (such as message queues and security) for managing client subscriptions to data events and for mapping those data events into a normalised data structure that is independent of the event source.
TimeScape Event Services insulate developers from needing to know the specifics of the underlying asynchronous API (such as Reuters RFA, Bloomberg DAPI etc), enabling developers to use a single TimeScape API function to access all data events.
TimeScape Event Services play an important role within Tick Capture Tasks where they are used to manage tick-by-tick price data subscriptions whose data is then stored for later analysis in target databases.
