Options Acquired Packets2Disk to Integrate Atlas
Options recently acquired Packets2Disk (P2D), a high-fidelity packet capture and analytics platform, to strengthen its ability to provide real-time capture, monitoring, and decode capabilities around market and trading data while delivering an easily integrated analytics platform as a SaaS or fully managed service model for all data and analytics requirements.
The strategic acquisition came on the heels of the recent launch of the Atlas product suite, which covers the firm’s network, market data, and trading infrastructure solutions. The comprehensive suite of four integrated products, Atlas is designed to deliver transparency for market data delivery and trading infrastructure through:
- AtlasFabric, a low-latency, fully resilient, high-availability network;
- AtlasFeed, the company’s industry-leading normalized and consolidated data feed service;
- AtlasEnterprise, a versatile platform offering clients complete control over their market data; and the suite’s standout feature,
- AtlasVision, which provides cutting-edge monitoring and alerting tools.
- AtlasVision delivers real-time insights into market data routing, live circuit updates, and automated gap detection, transforming transparency and control in market data management.
P2D is considered a disruptor in capital market analytics, boasting powerful packet capture technology that allows clients to track and analyze real-time and historical raw data (PCAP) through an easy-to-use GUI or API.
The firm delivers insights into trading and market data and is already a go-to platform, leveraged in production by some of the world’s leading Exchange and Asset Management firms.
With the acquisition of P2D, Options addresses critical industry challenges with capex-heavy refresh cycles, unpredictable running costs, and reliance on expensive in-house expertise. The integration of P2D’s technology into Options’ existing offerings provides a predictable, all-inclusive cost model, available as a subscription or managed service across its network of 60+ global data centers.
