Scalable Informatics Enables World’s First Low Latency On-Demand Cloud Trading Platform
Scalable Informatics, Inc. has been recognized as a key partner behind the world's first low latency on-demand financial cloud, built by Lucera. The breakthrough high performance cloud infrastructure is based on Scalable’s siCloud product, including their siRouter, siFlash, and JackRabbit systems.
"Working with Lucera, we have been able to design a scalable system that brings powerful on-demand low-latency trading capabilities to anyone,” says Dr. Joseph Landman, CEO of Scalable Informatics. “By designing our hardware to run Lucera software as fast as possible we have helped reduce both the cost and deployment time for this new breed of trading system. Where else can a trader create an on-line account, deploy servers, and connect to any financial destination with a 100 percent software-defined network faster than it takes to drink a cup of coffee?"
Running on Scalable hardware, Lucera's cloud infrastructure redefines how low-latency collocated systems are deployed. Lucera provides on-demand provisioning and a flexible, scalable, and holistic infrastructure management that, according to Lucera, can reduce infrastructure costs by up to 32 percent while providing a virtually instant and flexible deployment model.
The Scalable-built cloud is also home to Lucera's LumeFX, a fully-distributed hyper-intelligent matching engine for Foreign Exchange that distributes processes across multiple machines vs. a central server, allowing for dynamic scale (by simply adding cores) as volume increases.
"People who are serious about great software require an intimate relationship with their hardware, which is why we work so closely with Scalable. That's the only way we are able to greatly reduce latency and set new benchmarks around the world,” stated Jacob Loveless, CEO of Lucera.
