| This API is a clean-start development, allowing MarketFactory and its customers to move to a new integration model, as outlined below. |
The MFSBE4 API is founded on the Simple Binary Encoding (SBE) protocol using a simple primitive encoding, and is optimized for low bandwidth, low latency and direct data access.
For optimal performance, a tool such as Real-Logic's SBE tool should be used against the MFSBE4 Message Schema to generate compilable stubs to support the direct encoding or decoding of messages in the client application.
A simple sample program is also provided on the same page, illustrating:

https://github.com/real-logic/simple-binary-encoding/wiki - the most widely adopted reference implementation, provides details of the SBE tool.
