Real-Time Market Streams for Trading, Data, and AI
Deliver normalized, low-latency market data to web, mobile, and AI agents from a single managed streaming layer, without building or operating the infrastructure yourself.
Key Benefits
Compliance-Ready by Design
Support MiFID II, DORA, and audits faster.
Benefit
Fine-grained access control, audit-friendly history, and strong security practices give Compliance and InfoSec a clearer path through reviews and ongoing supervision.
Lower TCO Than DIY Clusters
Avoid 5x infrastructure and ops overhead.
Benefit
Replace self-hosted streaming stacks, on-call burden, and capacity planning with a managed platform so engineers focus on product, not plumbing.
Phased, Low-Risk Adoption
Start small, scale across products.
Benefit
Begin with one market stream or product line, validate performance and cost, then expand to additional assets, venues, and teams on the same platform.
Your Market Data Is Fast, But Your Infrastructure Is Slowing You Down
You’re juggling multiple feeds, schemas, and protocols just to keep basic real-time market streams alive.
Every volatility spike exposes reconciliation gaps, fragile websockets, and manual incident playbooks.
Meanwhile AI teams and traders wait for normalized, reliable data. A managed streaming layer turns that chaos into a strategic asset.
Why PubNub for Real-Time Market Streams?
See how a managed streaming layer compares to common alternatives for low-latency fintech data delivery.
PubNub vs. DIY Kafka/WebSocket Clusters
PubNub removes build/operate burden, on-call risk, and capacity planning so your team focuses on trading logic, not streaming infrastructure.
PubNub vs. Single-Cloud Messaging Services
PubNub provides a global edge network, multi-protocol fan-out, and fintech-ready controls instead of tying core market streams to one cloud stack.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does PubNub support real-time market streams for fintech?
PubNub provides managed pub/sub streaming and WebSocket delivery so you can distribute ticks, order book updates, and market events to thousands of subscribers in under 100ms. You plug PubNub into your existing ingestion stack, then fan-out normalized data to web, mobile, and AI consumers without operating your own streaming cluster.
Can we integrate PubNub with existing FIX, Kafka, or vendor feeds?
Yes. PubNub typically sits downstream of your FIX gateways, vendor APIs, or Kafka topics. You publish normalized messages from your current pipeline into PubNub channels, and PubNub handles global distribution, presence, and access control to your trading apps, internal tools, and AI workloads.
What about security, data protection, and regulatory compliance?
PubNub is built with strong security controls and audited practices, helping you address requirements related to MiFID II transparency, DORA operational resilience, and internal InfoSec standards. You can scope access via token-based permissions, maintain auditable histories where needed, and work with our team to support your security review.
How predictable are costs as real-time usage grows?
Pricing is driven by clear usage drivers such as active channels, message volume, and regions. That makes it easier to forecast spend as you add new assets, venues, or user segments. Our team can work with you on guardrails and monitoring so volatility spikes or new AI consumers do not create unexpected bills.
What is a typical adoption path for real-time market streams?
Most customers start with a single high-value use case—often a trading UI or AI research stream—prove latency and reliability, then expand to additional desks, asset classes, or internal consumers. Over time, PubNub becomes the standard streaming layer across products, replacing overlapping point solutions and custom websockets.
How quickly can we launch a production-grade stream?
Because PubNub is fully managed, teams often move from initial integration to a controlled production rollout in weeks, not quarters. Your engineers focus on normalization and business logic, while PubNub provides the underlying connectivity, scaling, and operational readiness.
