They connect directly to the sources, optimize connections and provide superior flexibility for integration into client systems. Clients can access data via Lime's proprietary portal or can co-locate servers at Lime's data centers for the lowest latency available.</p> <p/> <p>"As the marketplace continues to evolve, there will be increasing demand within the industry for options exchanges to deliver faster data to all market participants, helping to level the playing field," states <span class="xn-person">Jeff Wecker</span>, President and CEO of Lime Brokerage.</p> <p/> <p>"We're happy to be working with the CBOE, the cornerstone of the U.S. options markets, to broaden its customer base for high speed data beyond its membership," Wecker adds.</p> <p/> <p>"We are extremely pleased that a technology innovator like Lime Brokerage is helping us to begin reaching out to a new group of customers with our Real Time Data product," said Tom Knorring, CBOE Vice President, Trading Operations.</p> <pre> About Lime Brokerage </pre> <p>Providing customers with performance-engineered trading solutions that deliver speed, scale and reliability is the hallmark of Lime Brokerage.
