Where is the Market data server?

I read the documentation about connection with data server as below:

"Your market data administrator can provide connection details about the server hostname and RSSL port, presently set to localhost:14002. In addition, you would likely need to set the Service Name, presently set to DIRECT_FEED and a DACS Username required to entitle you to request for market data."

We don't have market data server installed and do not even know what it is. Can anybody tell me what products we need to buy and install?
