iLink 3 Binary Order Entry

Abstract

Main Changes:

  • iLink2 Tag value ASCII encoding FIX Transport (FIXT)

  • iLink3 Simple Binary Encoding FIX Performance Session Layer (FIXP)

No Changes on TCP/IP

Overview

iLink 3 introduces a new order entry protocol on CME Globex that provides the following:

  • Simple Binary Encoding (SBE) - optimized for low latency of encoding and decoding
  • FIX Performance (FIXP) protocol - supports simple session layer management; no session-level information (e.g. headers) required
  • Optimized order entry on the CME Globex platform for futures, options, and BrokerTec markets
  • Lean messages move administrative information out of order entry business message
  • Standard message size, fixed positions, and fixed length fields
  • Consistent encoding method for market data and order entry
  • XML schema and templates for order entry as with MDP 3

This diagram shows the final state of iLink order entry architecture following the complete migration to the iLink 3 messaging protocol in Q4 2020.
