Beeks Analytics for Markets (BAM) is the standard Beeks Analytics configuration.

BAM is a quick-to-configure templated deployment of a Beeks Analytics system, specifically focusing on monitoring communication at the edge of your network and/or specifically the performance of other trading venues and counterparties that you or your clients connect to. Monitor all of your network traffic, with dedicated TCP, UDP, Market Data, and Order Entry dashboards, bandwidth, packet loss and multiple granularities of microburst measurement, wiretime and feed comparison. Track and alert on the difference between the time a trading counterpart claims to have sent you a message, and the PTP-synchronised time that you actually receive it. Look for outliers, and drill into order lifecycle and individual transaction detail to identify and resolve poor performance.
