Financial Services

In many ways the modern financial markets are as much about technology as they are about money. The ability to instantaneously and safely transfer billions of dollars and complete millions of user-initiated and automated trades every second has exponentially increased the demands placed on the infrastructure of top financial institutions. The systems of today are bursting at the seams.

Solace’s innovative hardware uniquely offers the high-performance, low latency requirements to drive these markets, specifically with solutions in the following areas:

  • Algorithmic Trading — With enterprise-class content routers that perform the core functions of messaging at very high speed in purpose-built silicon, Solace provides a hardware-based platform that can help financial institutions dramatically increase the speed and efficiency of their trading environment.
  • Order Execution — Solace’s content routers set new standards for performance, reliability and manageability in persistent message delivery. Solace’s patented technology provides assured delivery of messages without having to store every message to disk, yet with full failsafe behavior in the event of a power or system outage. This enables messaging performance with 10 to 50 times more throughput and substantially lower, more predictable latency than current solutions.
  • Market Data Distribution — Solace’s content routers enable fast and efficient data fan-out to any number of applications or users using specialized hardware that eliminates the roadblocks and variables that can impact latency and predictability. Distributing content over TCP eliminates security issues, broadcast storms, slow receiver problems and network speed mismatches that can wreak havoc within today’s content distribution networks.
