Exegy, Inc., the market data appliance company unveiled a new version of the hardware accelerated Exegy Ticker Plant which includes Exegy code running on the customer’s machine. The Embedded Edition will be packaged with the market leading Exegy Ticker Plant.
Scott Parsons, Chief Scientist & Architect, said that this breakthrough design is based on insights and requests from customers. Speaking at the High Performance on Wall Street Conference in New York, Scott said that high frequency traders want to ingest colocated feeds directly into their private trading systems but they also want the benefits of hardware acceleration especially regarding capacity and feed management, and this product offers the best of both worlds.
Jeff Wells, Vice President of Product Management explained, “So a typical customer will bring in direct feeds via a cross-connect to the hardware-accelerated Exegy Ticker Plant and into their own box. The Exegy Ticker Plant and the client’s private machine will be constantly in touch electronically to maintain the relevant order books and to orchestrate feed synchronization. This is extremely important in today’s fast moving market. In addition, customers can hook up all the feeds they need from the away markets, that is those outside the colocated facility, into the familiar Exegy Ticker Plant. And the appliance provides an extremely low-latency low-jitter feed of normalized and managed data from order books, stocks, futures and options, whatever the customer selects from our portfolio of feed handlers. Based on testing so far, customers will be processing data, including the colocated order book, from the colocated feeds, at 10 microseconds or less while maintaining access to the away market data and the consolidated order book with latency of 25 microseconds.”
