xCelor and CIARA Announce Strategic Partnership
Chicago, IL, May 9, 2017 (Newswire.com) - xCelor, a leading provider of low-latency trading solutions, today announced its partnership with CIARA, a global tech company specializing in the design of bleeding edge, overclocked ORION HFT servers. This collaboration integrates xCelor’s FPGA-based market feed handler PCIe adapters with book building into CIARA’s high-performance, low-latency ORION HFT servers. This integration reduces line-rate processing, eliminating traditional long tails.
xCelor’s and CIARA’s collaboration provides a solution to the increasing volume of market data high-frequency traders (HFT) require to place their orders as fast as possible. An integrated SKU provides a plug-and-play solution for traders looking to reduce engineering and CAPEX. This co-innovation provides a single, low-latency solution with a market data feed handler and book building in a server directly connected to the exchange or through the xCelor’s XPM1/XPM3 switches.
"We chose to partner with xCelor, to provide an integrated market data feed handler and book building based on our ORION HF accelerated HFT server line. This collaboration enables our customers to bypass unnecessary development and integration costs and immediately obtain the lowest latency possible."
