NYSE Euronext (NYX) today announced that its U.S. data center in Mahwah , N.J. has successfully completed the migration of more than 4,500 equities issues listed on the New York Stock Exchange and NYSE Amex. With the NYSE and NYSE Amex equities primary matching engines now inside the new data center, NYSE Euronext will begin the migration of its other markets as well as NYSE Technologies’ diverse product portfolio that includes co-location services, direct data feeds, trading infrastructure on-demand, SuperFeed and its Risk Management Gateway (RMG) service.
“The successful move of NYSE and NYSE Amex listed issues into our U.S. data center is truly a technological and operational milestone for NYSE Euronext and our customers,” said Larry Leibowitz, COO, NYSE Euronext. “Conceived over two years ago, these data centers were built to be our next-generation trading ecosystem and the centerpiece of our vision for the future of global markets. Their unique combination of high-performance market access, financial technology solutions and market data services demonstrate how we intend to innovate capital markets and empower the trading community.”
The successful migration all NYSE and NYSE Amex equities issues to the U.S. liquidity center marks the completion of a significant part of the phased migration of NYSE Euronext’s U.S. markets. NYSE Arca equities and both of NYSE Euronext’s U.S. options exchanges, NYSE Arca and NYSE Amex options will complete their transition to Mahwah in the first quarter of 2011. Customers will also experience further performance benefits from the ongoing rollout of the company’s Universal Trading Platform, which will add the NYSE and NYSE Amex in early 2011.
