About the Project

QUODD builds a cloud-native, API-first market-data ecosystem (QX Digital + QX Marketplace) that packages, normalizes and delivers pricing, reference and fundamentals content from a broad set of sources on demand. Institutions call the APIs (REST or gRPC) or use bulk query endpoints and an Excel add-in to pull live, intraday and historical data into trading systems, valuations workflows, back-office reporting and customer-facing apps. QUODD focuses on modular, transparent delivery (flexible formats, clear billing) and positions its platform as a lower-friction, enterprise-grade alternative for firms that need tailored data footprints and programmable access.

Challenges in Development

Scalable SLA observability

Meeting enterprise SLAs required synthetic checks, retryable delivery (webhooks) and observability to detect and remediate delivery issues quickly.

Bulk Delivery & Job Orchestration

Supporting large scheduled extracts and audit-ready bulk queries required robust job orchestration and columnar storage to avoid overloads.

Entitlements and licensing controls

Enforcing seat-level entitlements, redistribution rights and usage-based billing created complexity in access control and audit trails.

Solutions: Our software agency provided

We implemented resilient ingestion and streaming layers plus caching strategies that delivered accurate, low-latency market prices to client applications. We built normalization microservices and enrichment pipelines so diverse data sources presented as a single, stable API surface. We developed high-throughput bulk query engines and Cloud Search integrations to power both ad-hoc lookups and scheduled back-office extracts. We added entitlement middleware, audit trails and monitoring so data licensing and SLAs remained transparent and auditable.

Key Features of the Application

1. Real-time & delayed pricing

QUODD delivered exchange-level and consolidated real-time and delayed quotes across equities, ETFs and indices for trading and display use cases.

2. Historical & end-of-day data

The platform provided intraday bars, end-of-day price history and adjusted historical series that clients used for valuations and back-testing.

3. Fundamentals & reference data

QUODD supplied fundamentals, financial statements, corporate actions and instrument attributes to support reporting and analytics.

4. QX Digital & QX Marketplace

The QX Digital platform and Marketplace allowed clients to assemble on-demand, modular data products and schedule tailored deliveries.

5. REST/gRPC APIs & Excel add-in

QUODD exposed programmatic access via REST and gRPC endpoints and provided an Excel add-in for analyst workflows and bulk lookups.

6. Cloud Search & symbol resolution

The platform offered fast typeahead and symbol-resolution services that reduced integration friction for client apps.

Results & Businesss Impact - Data Delivery & Operations

QUODD clients obtained faster access to accurate price and reference data, which reduced downstream reconciliation work and valuation lag. Normalized APIs and enrichment services shortened integration time and lowered engineering support tickets. Bulk query and scheduling improvements reduced back-office processing time and enabled automated, audit-ready extracts. Overall, these changes raised operational efficiency, lowered data-management costs, and improved time-to-insight for trading, valuations and client-facing applications.
