Spotex Boosts Trading Performance with Azul

ECN running on Azul Platform Prime delivers competitive advantage to buy- and sell-side participants.

Challenge
  • Spotex, an innovative Foreign Exchange (FX) Electronic Communication Network (ECN) focused on improving FX trading for both buy and sell-side participants, was suffering from performance and scalability issues with its Java infrastructure, with garbage collection and other latencies of 30-50 milliseconds every 10 minutes.
Solution
  • Spotex integrated Azul Platform Prime into its infrastructure.
Result
  • By simply replacing the legacy JVM with Azul Platform Prime, Spotex completely eliminated the problematic latency outliers and improved performance of the Spotex ECN by 28%.

“At Spotex, we have developed a leading-edge technology that is fair, efficient, and provides the highest level of integrity. Working with Azul has enabled us to deliver a robust and reliable solution for our clients.”
