Private Socket Feed

A private socket feed is a data feed that can only be accessed by a restricted number of authorized users or clients. Typically, it is used to offer real-time or near-real-time data to a select group of consumers, such as financial market data to a trading firm or sensor data to a particular manufacturer. When the data being delivered is sensitive or proprietary, and access to the data must be restricted to a select group of individuals or institutions, private socket feeds are frequently employed. The data is typically transmitted across a private network or a virtual private network (VPN) to ensure that only authorized users can access it.
