Sounds like a sensible plan to me - I would be inclined to do something fairly minimal though - consume the FIX/FAST stream and split on the delimiter, and send those out as individual ZMQ messages. Depends on what the aim of the device is, and what the consuming apps would be though - may want some different formats for playing nice with the ZMQ pub sub filtering.
