Disclosed herein is a processor to process streaming data. The processor includes a TCP client circuit and a TCP server circuit. A fanout circuit is communicatively coupled to the TCP client circuit and the TCP server circuit. The fanout circuit receives data from the TCP client circuit, determines a rate at which to transmit the received market data, and instructs the TCP server circuit to send the received data at the determined rate.

Fanout processor

Method, apparatus, and system may control chronological sequencing of data items received from a plurality of client computing devices, according to times of completion of transmission respectively from the client computing devices and distributing the data items according to the chronological sequencing to one or more destination computing devices with minimal latency. In an exemplary implementation, trade orders from participant computing devices may be distributed by an electronic trading platform with minimal latency to exchange gateways, based on time of transmission of the trade orders to the platform instead of time of receipt of the trade orders by the platform, thereby avoiding unfairness to those participants whose computing devices are located at greater distances from the platform than other computing devices respectively of other participants.
