Summary

The Open Data Streaming Program (ODSP) is a new initiative that aims to provide free hosting and distribution of open streaming data sources on the API Streamer platform. Under the ODSP, anyone can publish streams of realtime data for free, provided it's made freely available for others to consume and subject to a fair use policy. The program seeks to liberate the many sources of realtime data around the world by enabling producers of open realtime data to publish their streams without worrying about infrastructure, protocols, or APIs. It also pushes this realtime data to consumers as soon as it becomes available using their chosen means of delivery.
