Universal Data Stream Architecture Audit & Optimization Plan

📊 UNIVERSAL DATA FORMAT SPECIFICATION

Our trading system is built around 5 core timeseries streams that provide a standardized data format to all models:

Core Timeseries (The Sacred 5)

1. ETH/USDT Ticks (1s) - Primary trading pair real-time data
2. ETH/USDT 1m - Short-term price action and patterns
3. ETH/USDT 1h - Medium-term trends and momentum
4. ETH/USDT 1d - Long-term market structure
5. BTC/USDT Ticks (1s) - Reference asset for correlation analysis

🔍 ARCHITECTURE AUDIT FINDINGS

✅ STRENGTHS

2. Publisher-Subscriber: Efficient one-to-many data distribution
3. Performance Tracking: Built-in metrics and monitoring
4. Multi-Timeframe: Comprehensive temporal view
5. Real-time Processing: Live data with proper buffering

⚠️ OPTIMIZATION OPPORTUNITIES

1. Memory Efficiency

• Issue: Multiple data copies across consumers
• Impact: High memory usage with many subscribers
• Solution: Implement shared memory buffers with copy-on-write

2. Processing Latency

• Issue: Sequential processing in some callbacks
• Impact: Delays in real-time decision making
• Solution: Parallel consumer notification with thread pools

3. Data Staleness

• Issue: No real-time freshness validation
• Impact: Models might use outdated data
• Solution: Timestamp-based data validity checks

4. Network Optimization

• Issue: Individual API calls for each timeframe
• Impact: Rate limiting and bandwidth waste
• Solution: Batch requests and intelligent caching

🚀 OPTIMIZATION IMPLEMENTATION PLAN

Phase 1: Memory Optimization

# Implement shared memory data structures
class SharedDataBuffer:
    def __init__(self, max_size: int):
        self.data = np.zeros((max_size, 6), dtype=np.float32)  # OHLCV + timestamp
        self.write_index = 0
        self.readers = {}  # Consumer ID -> last read index
        
    def write(self, new_data: np.ndarray):
        # Atomic write operation
        self.data[self.write_index] = new_data
        self.write_index = (self.write_index + 1) % len(self.data)
    
    def read(self, consumer_id: str, count: int) -> np.ndarray:
        # Return data since last read for this consumer
        last_read = self.readers.get(consumer_id, 0)
        data_slice = self._get_data_slice(last_read, count)
        self.readers[consumer_id] = self.write_index
        return data_slice

Phase 2: Parallel Processing

# Implement concurrent consumer notification
class ParallelDataDistributor:
    def __init__(self, max_workers: int = 4):
        self.executor = ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=max_workers)
        
    def distribute_to_consumers(self, data_packet: Dict[str, Any]):
        futures = []
        for consumer in self.active_consumers:
            future = self.executor.submit(self._notify_consumer, consumer, data_packet)
            futures.append(future)
        
        # Wait for all notifications to complete
        for future in as_completed(futures, timeout=0.1):
            try:
                future.result()
            except Exception as e:
                logger.warning(f"Consumer notification failed: {e}")

Phase 3: Intelligent Caching

# Implement smart data caching with expiration
class SmartDataCache:
    def __init__(self):
        self.cache = {}
        self.expiry_times = {}
        self.hit_count = 0
        self.miss_count = 0
    
    def get_data(self, symbol: str, timeframe: str, force_refresh: bool = False) -> np.ndarray:
        cache_key = f"{symbol}_{timeframe}"
        current_time = time.time()
        
        if not force_refresh and cache_key in self.cache:
            if current_time < self.expiry_times[cache_key]:
                self.hit_count += 1
                return self.cache[cache_key]
        
        # Cache miss - fetch fresh data
        self.miss_count += 1
        fresh_data = self._fetch_fresh_data(symbol, timeframe)
        
        # Cache with appropriate expiration
        self.cache[cache_key] = fresh_data
        self.expiry_times[cache_key] = current_time + self._get_cache_duration(timeframe)
        
        return fresh_data

🎯 CONCLUSION

The Universal Data Stream architecture is the backbone of our trading system. The 5 timeseries format ensures all models receive consistent, high-quality data. The subscriber architecture enables efficient distribution, but there are clear optimization opportunities for memory usage, processing latency, and caching.

Next Steps: Focus on implementing shared memory buffers and parallel consumer notification to improve performance while maintaining the integrity of our universal data format.

Critical: All optimization work must preserve the 5 timeseries structure as it's fundamental to our model training and decision making processes.
