RMD Server™

Connection Object

The Connection object serves as both the Client and the Server. Depending on the permission type you log in with, any instance of the Connection object can be used as a server to insert data into tables and rebroadcast to all connected and authenticated clients. Other instances of this same object can be used as a client to retrieve historic data (10 second bars, 5 min bars, daily bars, etc.) and subscribe to real time updates. If you are deploying RMD Server™ as a Desktop solution, you will generally have only one or two Server Connection objects, and only one Client Connection object at any one time:

Desktop Configuration

If you are deploying RMD Server™ as an Enterprise solution, you will generally have multiple Server Connection objects and multiple Client Connection objects at once.
