Exegy, a leading provider of market data, trading technology, and managed services for the capital markets, today announced a double victory at the annual IMD & IRD Awards hosted by WatersTechnology. Exegy was named Best Low-Latency Data or Technology Provider of the Year, while ExegyNexus™ received top honors for Best Real-Time Market Data Initiative.
The IMD & IRD Awards recognize exceptional market, reference, and alternative data technologies. Panel judges evaluated nominated platforms on the efficiency, reliability, and delivery quality of ultra-low-latency market data across global financial institutions.
“These awards validate the relentless work our teams put in across the full market data performance spectrum—from flexible software and managed services to ultra-low-latency FPGA technology,” said David Taylor, CEO of Exegy. “Our priority remains solving critical infrastructure and operational challenges for our clients, and these recognitions reinforce our commitment to raising the bar for how real-time market data is processed, managed, and delivered.”
Following the strategic integration of Vela and Enyx, Exegy unified three specialized firms—combining Vela’s enterprise software expertise, Exegy’s managed services, and Enyx’s FPGA hardware innovation. Under one company, Exegy delivers a comprehensive suite of market data solutions ranging from normalized data feeds-as-a-service to purpose-built hardware infrastructure, supporting latency requirements from sub-millisecond down to sub-microsecond across more than 300 global feeds.
A key result of this combined capability is ExegyNexus™, an FPGA-powered real-time market data platform delivering ultra-low-latency performance with unified access in a fully managed appliance. Developed alongside leading market makers, agency brokerages, and global banks, Nexus directly addresses core production bottlenecks including server rack constraints, rising energy costs, and duplicate system overhead. Through its specialized NexusNIC, Nexus makes high-throughput FPGA market data usable by standard applications without requiring custom software re-engineering.
