Voltaire has announced that it is working with NYSE Technologies to deliver a messaging solution that speeds performance of automated trading environments and financial market data applications.
The company stated that as the industry’s first solution for market data based on 40 Gb/s InfiniBand, the solution is designed to deliver the industry’s lowest latency – 4X lower latency than alternative offerings that supply a 10 Gb Ethernet interconnect fabric with very low power consumption.
The company further stated that NYSE’s data fabric with Voltaire’s 40 Gb/s InfiniBand and message acceleration software would deliver performance of less than 10 microsecond latency at greater than 1m messages per second.
Conor Allen, head of R&D at NYSE Technologies, said: “By combining NYSE Technologies’ Data Fabric and Voltaire’s 40 Gb/s InfiniBand technology, we’ve supplemented our high performance messaging suite with an ultra low latency solution tailored for next generation automated trading infrastructures. This combined solution also provides a compelling story in terms of energy efficiency, data center space conservation and overall price-performance.”
Asaf Somekh, vice president of marketing, Voltaire, said: “The performance and cost savings this solution provides is critical for financial services firms that rely on speed and performance to gain competitive advantage but also need to keep a close eye on data center power requirements and spending.”
