In particular, the group has launched its Elektron Managed Services at the NY4 data center, helping satisfy a lingering need for the mitigation and reduction of capital expenditure and operational risk from multiple financial service venues. The decision to link up to the NY4 data center in Secaucus also complements Thomson Reuters’ existing infrastructural agenda, which is also tied to the NJ2 location in Weehawken, NJ.

Opting to link up to high-speed data centers has been an ongoing trend over the past few years as companies look to tackle latency issues and scalable costs. The initiative also helps firms relying on Thomson Reuters’ Elektron Managed Services, which will now yield a wide range of benefits from integrating with NY4, including more robust market data and platform services at a reduced cost.
