RE: Market Data Price Feeds/Update to AS/400

[Chris Bipes <ChrisB@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

SOCKETS are a point to point communication protocol for TCP/IP.  There has
been much discussion on the RPG400-L about this subject over the last few
weeks.  It is fast, very fast.  There are a couple/three packages that make
it easier to implement from $3500 - $7995 per AS400 CPU.  NEWS/400 June 1999
has an article and downloadable code.  Check it out at
HTTP://www.new400.com.  
ROI has a Socket Product, HTTP://www.roiconnect.com.  Magellan Software is
another, HTTP://www.magsoft.com.  The big question is WHO or HOW are you
going to send the transactions from your NT, (not there)<BG>, server?  Yes
Microsoft includes the socket function with NT as well as 95/98.
