Nasdaq Launches Cloud Technology Platform Nasdaq Data Link

Nasdaq, a global technology company serving the capital markets and other industries, announced yesterday the launch of Nasdaq Data Link, a cloud-based technology platform that empowers all segments of the investors with a comprehensive suite of core financial, fund and alternative data.

According to the official press release, the platform connects the global financial community to the information needed to generate alpha, manage risk and gain transparency into public and private markets.

Currently, Nasdaq clients are able to access an expanding library of datasets via cloud APIs to manage, discover, and integrate new information with ease. Also, the latest launch will deliver secure, end-to-end data hosting through managed infrastructure and services that enable users to privately share proprietary data, manage data access, and monitor data quality over time within a single organization.

In 2018, Nasdaq has acquired the financial and economic data provider Quandl, whose technology serves as Nasdaq Data Link’s underlying infrastructure, ensuring seamless user experience and continued delivery of high-performance APIs.

“Nasdaq Data Link is a key step in delivering on our commitment to creating an innovative and transparent data marketplace, allowing more people to access information,” said Lauren Dillard, Executive Vice President and Head of Investment Intelligence, Nasdaq. “With the new platform, Nasdaq is bringing our data and technology to bear, helping our clients drive better investment outcomes and build better solutions for the community they serve.”
