Your data.
Faster. Easier.
Welcome to MetaFluent, a new approach to accessing and integrating enterprise data, delivered in real time whatever the source. It’s so simple, You Already Know How to Use It™.
Ready when you are

Elastic MDS® by MetaFluent is a cloud-ready platform that lets applications consume, create, and share realtime and non-realtime data with simplicity, speed, and enterprise-grade control.

Modern applications need instant access to constantly changing information. Elastic MDS® provides a unified data platform that delivers high-performance streaming and static data while dramatically reducing infrastructure complexity.
Built from Real-World Experience

Why Elastic MDS®

Since 2007, MetaFluent has delivered enterprise-grade real-time data platforms to the world financial trading systems, where organizations require: 
Instant access to market data
Fine-grained entitlement controls
High-performance distributed infrastructure
Elastic MDS® does all this and more. It is one application of a general engine: the same platform, as StreamLens®, serves data from any source.

Where the Work Belongs

Those capabilities are easy to describe and hard to buy, because most platforms were built for a different problem. Realtime data is going through a once-in-a-generation shift as financial institutions move to cloud-first applications and data. That is a hard change to make, and the default answer is to lift what you already have and set it down somewhere else: ten thousand lines of yield curve application, now running in the cloud. The better question is where the work belongs: integration, computation and delivery handled by the infrastructure rather than rebuilt inside every application.
An enterprise holds its data across many systems — market-data feeds, databases, files, message buses — each with its own access method, format, update behaviour and access control mechanisms. An application that needs to combine them, and to react as they change, ends up integrating each one directly. That integration is where the costs add up: in the initial code, the updates, the fragility and operational headaches.

Most platforms fall short:

  • Market data systems distribute in real time but integrate little else — anything outside the feed stays your problem.
  • Streaming platforms move messages reliably, but a message is all you get: no content model, no entitlements, nothing to query.
  • Enterprise data platforms integrate broadly, but only once you have loaded everything into one place, and they are not real-time distribution mechanisms.

The application code does not get ported but rather moves into the infrastructure, where the calculation is computed in one place, updates as its inputs update, and is available to everyone entitled to see it. Because the calculation now lives in the infrastructure it is scalable, resilient and observable, which the original never was.

A Simpler, Smarter Way to Work with Data

The platform itself is StreamLens®, an integration and analytics platform with its roots in realtime distribution. It’s so simple, You Already Know How to Use It™.
Key advantages include:
Business-aware Data Infrastructure
Embed business logic directly within the platform to transform and deliver the data your applications actually need.
Unified Data Access
Work with realtime and non-realtime information using familiar standards like JMS, JDBC, SQL and REST.
Extreme Performance and Efficiency
Sub-millisecond latency, autoscaling infrastructure, and intelligent data delivery minimize compute and bandwidth costs.
Platform Capabilities

Built for the Demands of Modern Data

StreamLens® introduces patented innovations that combine performance, simplicity, and enterprise data governance.

Intelligent Data Delivery

Instead of pushing all data everywhere, StreamLens delivers only the information users actually need, reducing processing and bandwidth.

Autoscaling Architecture

Based on your policies, the platform automatically expands and contracts based on load, time, or policy—ensuring efficiency without manual intervention.

Read: The Slow Consumer · Resilience and Scaling

Inline Computation

This reduces the need to move data around and improves resilience - business logic can leverage the same autoscaling as raw data

A worked example in Selectors

Enterprise Data Controls

Entitlements are fine-grained and apply to content rather than connections, and they follow it through joins and computations: if you don't have access to an input, you don't have access to anything derived from it.

Designed to Reduce Cost, Complexity, and Risk

Business Outcomes

Organizations using MetaFluent benefit from:
Lower Infrastructure Costs

Content is held only while something needs it, and only once however many applications ask for it, so you are not paying to store or move the same data repeatedly.

Lower Development & Operations Costs

Developers work through JMS, JDBC and SQL, so there is no proprietary interface to learn. Operators have less to configure, because the system places content and rebalances it as load changes.

Greater Agility

Adding a data source means starting a service that serves it: nothing is reconfigured and nothing is restarted. Analytics that once needed an application of their own are now expressed in simple SQL and maintained in one place.

Reduced Risk

Entitlements apply to content rather than connections, and they follow it through joins and computations: if you don't have access to an input, you don't have access to anything derived from it.

Build the Next Generation of Data-Driven Applications

Elastic MDS® makes it simple for developers and operators to deliver realtime insights at scale — without the complexity of traditional real-time streaming platforms.
Use Cases

Powering Realtime Decisions

These applications have one thing in common. They track many things that keep changing, and when a decision is required the state they hold has to be correct: a position is amended onto another desk, a vehicle leaves a zone, a device changes status. Delivering accurate information in time to act on it is what MetaFluent is built for.
