The streaming Ajax service from Lightstreamer allows HedgeStreet customers to access live HedgeStreet prices via the internet and trade from anywhere with a simple browser, thus avoiding complications which result when downloads or plug-ins may be required.
Lightstreamer is a push engine conceived for live data distribution to any kind of client application (thin, thick, mobile, etc.) In the case of thin clients, it relies on the AJAX-Comet paradigm to stream real-time data to any HTML browser without the need to download or install anything on the client.
Bill McIntosh, vice president of marketing at HedgeStreet, commented, With Lightstreamer, we have a strong source for our future expansion.
