RTS Deploys in Hong Kong Equinix Datacenter
RTS Realtime Systems Group has deployed in Equinix's Hong Kong International Business Exchange (IBX) datacenter.
Already live, the deployment in Equinix's Hong Kong IBX datacenter will serve as RTS' third gateway from and to trading communities in the Asia-Pacific region. RTS clients will be able to directly access the Hong Kong Mercantile Exchange (HKMEx). The gateway will be linked to RTS' global network, which provides proximity hosting and direct market access (DMA) to more than 65 exchanges globally.
"Hong Kong is strategically important for our growth plans," says Andy Woodhouse, RTS managing director. "It is the main gateway into and out of China and a major financial hub. Physical connectivity is key, and through the deployment in Equinix's data center in Hong Kong, we are able to facilitate trading on both the HKMEx and the Hong Kong Exchange, but more importantly on markets all over the world."
RTS is already leveraging Platform Equinix in Chicago, Frankfurt and New York.
