ENG Entitlement Applications Team develops and supports Bloomberg access control systems for Exchanges and 3rd Party provided data. The team provides high-performance robust entitlement system that controls real-time client access to all Exchanges and 3rd Party contributed data (such as News, Research, Pricing, Derivatives etc.) across the Bloomberg platform and Data products.

The system will also provide monitoring, diagnostic, and developer tools using different technologies like MQ, Humio, and Bloomberg proprietary telemetry system GUTS, etc...

We are also migrating our Exchanges product management applications to Linux.  These applications include tools used for onboarding an exchange, maintaining exchange profiles and the related permissioning, billing, reporting, etc. for these exchanges.
