Solutions for Financial Institutions

In many ways the modern financial markets are as much about technology as they are about money. The ability to instantaneously and safely transfer billions of dollars and complete millions of user-initiated and automated trades every second has exponentially increased the demands placed on the infrastructure of top financial institutions. The systems of today are bursting at the seams.

Solace's innovative hardware uniquely offers the high-performance, low latency requirements to drive these markets, specifically with solutions in the following areas:

  • High-speed Messaging — Solace’s content networking system embeds middleware functionality directly into hardware to deliver unprecedented throughput and low latency to support a wide range of financial applications with consistently fast and efficient performance across local LAN segments and across bandwidth-restricted global WAN links.
  • Persistent Messaging — Solace’s content routers set new standards for performance, reliability and manageability in persistent message delivery. Solace's patented technology provides assured delivery of messages without having to store every message to disk, yet with full failsafe behavior in the event of a power or system outage. This enables messaging performance with 10 to 50 times more throughput and substantially lower, more predictable latency than current solutions.
  • Content Distribution — Solace’s content routers enable fast and efficient data fan-out to any number of applications or users using specialized hardware that eliminates the roadblocks and variables that can impact latency and predictability. Distributing content over TCP eliminates security issues, broadcast storms, slow receiver problems and network speed mismatches that can wreak havoc within today’s content distribution networks.
  • Financial Middleware — By performing CPU-intensive functions like routing, filtering, transformation and messaging in hardware, Solace's content routers can accelerate each function and reduce 10 to 50 middleware servers into just one pair of redundant content routers.
  • Event Processing — Solace's content routers can monitor, filter, route, transform and secure extremely large volumes of events to enable applications such as fraud detection, algorithmic trading, compliance, insider trade monitoring, risk management and more.
  • Data Synchronization —Solace's content routers can enable sophisticated real-time data synchronization across diverse data sources. Data is only sent once over expensive wide area links, regardless of the number of recipients, which translates into superior performance and lower costs and bandwidth requirements for WAN links.
