Better known as the &#8220;Terminal,&#8221; the Bloomberg Professional service has evolved from a desktop-driven technology into a cloud-based software platform, supported by one of the world\u2019s largest private networks.<\/p>\n<p>In 1982, with just two developers in a one-room office, Michael R. Bloomberg and our founders built the Terminal &#8211; the software, hardware and network &#8211; from scratch. Three decades and 4,000 technologists later, we continue the efforts of our founders to bring transparency to the global financial markets and push boundaries to deliver unique, valuable solutions to our customers.<\/p>\n<p>A part of our ongoing innovation efforts includes our growing use of open source technologies.
