Sun Unified Storage Solution for High-Performance Trading

Rapidly develop trading strategies, share data, and analyze stock trading trends in real time across hundreds of compute nodes simultaneously.


About This Solution

Staying ahead of the competition is tougher than ever, thanks to soaring volumes of algorithmic trading, more regulations, and an increasing demand for real-time processing.

The Sun Unified Storage Solution for High-Performance Trading enables you to improve your performance compared to costly proprietary solutions. It reduces latencies across different trading components deployed in a cluster while also significantly lowering acquisition and operational costs compared to conventional storage architectures.

Solaris ZFS transparently caches data on SSDs, dramatically reducing latencies and shattering I/O bottlenecks. What's more, deploying this solution in a trading cluster results in extremely high bandwidth and throughput for all nodes.

The breakthrough economics and enterprise performance provided by Sun's Storage 7000 Unified Storage Systems, combined with ease of use and advanced manageability, brings great innovation to the storage market. This is perfectly aligned with Hi-Stor's commitment to improve the quality and efficiency of our customer's storage management architecture.
