Establishing A Financial Market Data Component In A Financial Market Data System

An apparatus for establishing a financial market data component in a financial market data system, the apparatus comprising a computer processor, a computer memory operatively coupled to the computer processor, the computer memory having disposed within it computer program instructions capable of:

• retrieving, by a configuration module from a configuration repository, at least a portion of a global system configuration for a financial market data system, the financial market data system comprising a plurality of financial market data components;
• identifying, by the configuration module in dependence upon the retrieved portion of the global system configuration, component characteristics of a particular financial market data component in the financial market data system, the component characteristics specifying a component configuration for the particular component and any interface configurations for any interfaces of the particular component with any other financial market data components in the financial market data system, the component characteristics further comprise a system identifier, a component functional group identifier, and a component business group identifier, the system identifier specifying a particular financial market data system within a business organization in which the particular component is comprised, the component functional group identifier specifying a type of function provided by the particular component within the financial market data system, the component business group identifier specifying a business role provided by the particular component within a set of the financial market data components having the same component functional group identifier;
• and
• deploying, by the configuration module, the financial market data component in the financial market data system in dependence upon the component characteristics.
