I can confirm that it is pretty easy to follow the DTC Protocol Spec from SC and implement a custom DTC Server for integration with additional Market Data Vendors. The SC Software Architecture to use a DTC Server as a form of Market Data Adapter is ingenious. It makes everything very easy to implement and decoupled. On top of everything we have implemented our DTC Server in Java (due to the Market Data Vendor APIs being available in Java) and it was very easy to do that. The SC spec for Google Protocol Buffers for DTC Messages was crucial for the rapid progress during the development of our Java based DTC Server. It provided excellent DTC Message interoperability across Java and C. All in all that has cemented further my opinion of SC as the best trading platform in the Capital Markets industry. And boy I have tried and used all major trading platforms out there (including "institutional") and secondly I am a professional software engineer and a profitable trader - I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt - SC is the best product out there!
