Developer Solutions

IT departments of financial services providers and media portals are challenged to constantly evolve their financial information systems to reflect latest market developments and support sales strategies. They are expected to quickly release new, high-quality applications while reducing operational costs and infrastructure investments.

Interactive Data’s PrimeDeveloper supports IT departments in building financial portals or applets for displaying and analyzing financial information. This comprehensive development services package is designed to enable IT staff to concentrate on its core competences rather than tie up resources and costs in the development and operation of a technical platform for market data.


Interactive Data’s developer services package includes:

  • Access to a broad content range (market data, reference data, news) delivered in real-time, end-of-day or delayed, and analytical tools
  • Variety of application programming interfaces (APIs)
  • Historical data storage
  • Seamless integration of proprietary content (via Contribution Suite)
  • Push/pull service
  • Toolkit and templates for configuring customized websites
  • Coaching, consulting and feasibility analysis
  • Training courses on the market data platform and the APIs
  • Extensive documentation
  • Quick start manuals and standardized test interfaces
  • Telephone support
  • Entitlement, permissioning and reporting services for the applications
  • Optional hosting and monitoring of application servers

PrimeDeveloper, which is based on Interactive Data’s Market Data Gateway, delivers market information at a high level of abstraction in intelligent “objects”, which encapsulate business logic such as searching, ranking and session handling. These “objects” are easy to use for developers and, depending on the parameter setting, each object can produce different results within the application. As a result, the use of these “objects” can help make the creation of tailored solutions faster and easier. These “objects” are delivered via Internet (VPN-Tunnel, leased line) so that existing databases of “objects” can easily be integrated.
