AdvancedIO Systems: Financial Trading
Framework speeds application development of ultra-low-latency financial systems.
Since the advent of electronic trading, a race for speed has ensued to build the fastest and smartest trading platforms. Response time has decreased from seconds, to milliseconds, to microseconds. The drive for microsecond and sub-microsecond response time is simply not possible with traditional software or simple hardware architectures, a fact that is propelling the adoption of field programmable gate array (FPGA) technology in ultralow-latency systems.
To reduce the risk involved in developing hardware description language (HDL) code natively on an FPGA Ethernet card while also slashing development time, AdvancedIO has pioneered the use of FPGA frameworks for 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GE) communications. The AdvancedIO expressXG development framework tool set provides the infrastructure necessary to ensure rapid deployment of financial services and allows seamless portability to the latest generation of FPGA cards.
