"One of the biggest advantages of this feature is its ease of use." -- commented Stoyan Damov, one of B2N's architects. "It can do everything for you. The updates can be applied on the subscribers' side automatically and the user can choose between getting a snapshot or just the changes in the order book without any performance impact".
