Server Collocation

Overview

vCapFutures can help your institution or proprietary trading group collocate your servers in our off-site data centers for black box hosting, maximum speed, redundancy and efficiency and more reliable exchange connectivity and execution. Server collocation can also be used to handle unforeseen catastrophic events in your local area.

Building and expanding the facilities that house your network architecture can be a major roadblock to your institution’s exchange connectivity and trading profitability. Our server collocation services provide an alternative to the cost of running a dedicated line to our servers or exchanges and can help clear the way for your institution or proprietary trading group to find a faster, more economical way to deploy your institutions trading applications, front-end systems and black box operations.

Our server infrastructure and institutional network was built to deliver the speed and reliability critical for direct access institutional trading. Redundancy and scalability were built in to all areas that affect performance and our server environment was built to support mission critical operations, complete with climate controlled rooms in a secured building.

How it works

Your network server will be situated in a off-site state of the art network center and share our robust, high-performance exchange connectivity and reliable gateways. You will have complete administrative control over your server and can access your system via: telnet; secure shell; or any other remote administration program you wish to install.

Our server infrastructure and collocation facilities are secured, air conditioned and powered by redundant uninterrupted power supply units with back-up generators standing ready in case of power grid failures. All account information is mirrored; even in the unlikely event that one complete network fails, the system is designed so that the redundant network will immediately be connected to protect your orders and facilitate the execution of your trades.
