Advantage Futures announced support of over 500 technology devices throughout its multiple data centers. This significant buildout includes client equipment colocated proximate to exchange matching engines as well as Advantage Futures network and operational infrastructure. Client hosted technology devices increased 26% since January 2015.
“We see accelerated demand for server colocation,” explained Advantage CEO Joe Guinan, “client focus on cost reduction coupled with trust and confidence in our talented technology team seem to propel this increase.”
“The growth in colocated equipment highlights our technology team’s quality service, network monitoring, on-site maintenance and support,” explained Terry Duffy, Senior Vice President, Business Development, Advantage Futures.
Advantage offers flexible monthly pricing with no long-term contracts required. The firm leases over 4,000 square feet of data center space strategically located in proximity to major exchange trade matching engines. Server colocation brings client trading strategies close to exchange matching engines—reducing latency, execution times and points of potential failure.
“Advantage colocation provides clients reliable, high-performance connectivity at a fraction of the cost of a private data center,” added Tom Guinan, Chief Technology Officer, Advantage Futures. “Our economies of scale enable Advantage to price competitively, maintain performance and efficiency and provide exceptional service. When the markets are open, we are open, staffed 24/6 to provide support.”
