FxPro CIO expects reduced latency from Solace solution
Finance Magnates reporters spoke with FxPro’s Chief Information Officer (CIO) Mr. Panayiotis Annivas today. He expects the changes to reduce latency, and improve the company’s ability to disseminate prices faster, including process a higher number of messages and related throughput efficiencies.
He added during the call how the solution from Solace was unified from a single provider, compared with running three different products, and how the integration progress is already near the end of the pre-production phase ahead of the live launch.
The Solace products used by FX Pro as part of the change include the Solace Message Router Appliance, and Solace Virtual Message Router which will support information/message processing within data centers and over wide area networks (WAN) and via web and mobile, thus helping to power some of FX Pro’s applications and core infrastructure.
