Re: [Quickfix-developers] Connection between servers

[Grant B. <gbi...@co...>]

Every QuickFIX connection is between an Initiator object and an Acceptor
object.  These are analogous to a client and server, in that an Acceptor
waits for an Initiator to connect.  Clients usually use Initiators and
servers usually use Acceptors.

​A client application can connect to two servers by creating two
Initiators.  Each Initiator will have its own session configuration (the
config file can contain multiple session configs).

Two server applications can connect to each other via FIX, but one's going
to have to use an Initiator and the other will use an Acceptor.  Using FIX
is right approach here; if the servers are controlled by the same firm then
maybe they should use something else on an internal network.
