StreamBase VP Of Marketing Bill Hobbib On Panel At 2005 High Performance On Wall Street

Panel Examines Scalable Low Latency Market Data Infrastructure Requirements; Hobbib to Address Requirements for Processing Real-Time Streaming Data

BOSTON, MA – September 19, 2005 — StreamBase Systems, Inc., the pioneer of enterprise-class stream processing software designed to transform real-time complex events into instantaneous competitive advantage, today announced that Bill Hobbib, the company's vice president of marketing, will participate on a panel at 2005 High Performance on Wall Street, entitled "High Performance Architectures for Low Latency Market Data," which will examine the supporting IT building blocks required for a scalable low latency market data infrastructure.

The demand for high-volume, low-latency applications is particularly strong in the financial services industry, where fast processing speed and agility are key to competitive advantage. Financial applications, including automated trading, risk management, and feed processing and conditioning, require the processing and instant analysis of large volumes of complex real-time event streams. Hobbib will address these challenges and discuss how a new type of data processing and analytic infrastructure is required to meet the demand for real-time applications that can capture, analyze and take action on data the instant it arrives.

StreamBase — the first Stream Processing Engine (SPE) for real-time data processing — is able to meet the application challenges posed by high-volume, high-velocity and high-value streaming data. By using StreamSQL, the next generation query language for applications involving fast-moving streams of data, StreamBase can process, analyze and respond to extremely high volumes of real-time data within milliseconds of arrival.

The 2005 High Performance on Wall Street conference will showcase exciting new technologies and architectures, providing real-life case studies from early adopters, as well as thought leadership direction from world class IT infrastructure vendors. The conference focuses on IT issues of critical importance to Wall Street trading firms, including:

• Engineering systems for low latency market data distribution
• Supporting compute-intensive algorithmic trading for customers
• Coping with increasingly volatile global trading markets
• Performing enterprise-wide risk and portfolio management processing
• Leveraging industry standards in high throughput environments

The 2005 High Performance on Wall Street conference will take place on Monday, September 26 at the Roosevelt Hotel, New York, NY. Bill Hobbib's panel, "High Performance Architectures for Low Latency Market Data," will take place at 2:30 p.m.
