Ably, an investment from the Mayor of London's Tech Fund, has launched the Open Data Streaming Program (ODSP), a platform designed to democratize real-time data sharing. Through the program, anyone producing streams of data can use the Ably Data Stream Exchange (DSX) to host and distribute data for free, provided it is made freely available for others. The initiative aims to improve civil infrastructure and the digital economy by providing access to real-time data. The platform offers operational tools such as analytics, security, billing, and developer portals, and supports various use cases including transport networks, live messaging, location tracking, document collaboration, cryptocurrencies, air traffic control systems, gaming, and e-learning.
