-# Designing the Test
-
-My use case is as follows: ingest binary market data from
-[IEX](https://iextrading.com/trading/market-data/) and turn it into
-a format understandable by each library being tested. Then we'll
-write a simple program to find total trade volume per ticker,
-and the highest and lowest bid/ask price per ticker as well.
-
-<span style="font-size: .8em">Note: Market data is the use case here
-simply because IEX makes the data freely available; no code or analysis
-in this blog is related to my past or present work.</span>
-
-Now, the basic criteria used to evaluate each library:
-
-1) The library must have cross-language support, and treat Rust as a
-first-class citizen.
-
-2) The schema must be able to evolve and add new fields. The information
-I'm gathering now is fairly simple, but would evolve in the future.
-
-3) Performance is a priority; material performance differences
-(time to de/serialize, memory usage) matter.
-
-Under those three criteria, we're excluding a lot of systems that
-may make sense in other contexts:
-
-- [Bincode](https://github.com/servo/bincode) has great Rust support
-and a simple wire format (message structure) but isn't usable from
-other languages and doesn't deal well with schema evolution.
-
-- [Protocol Buffers](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/) have
-great cross-language support, but material performance issues compared
-to other systems like FlatBuffers.
-
-- JSON/Msgpack are schema-less; while the wire format is simple,
-having code generated from a schema is too nice to pass up.
-
-While each of these have a niche they perform well in, they're not
-suited for the system under consideration.
