QIX

QIX can improve business flow by minimizing the number of redundant and unnecessary messages, enhancing the client base, reducing time spent in voice-based telephone conversations and practically eliminating paper clutter. The protocol is compatible with nearly all commonly used networking technologies. QIX is similar to an application program interface (API) but reduces operating costs because it does not require a service delivery platform at the subscriber site. NASDAQ encourages subscribers to switch from API to QIX. To effectively use QIX, a subscriber must have at least two TCP/IP connections with different port numbers.
