Proximity Hosting.

You workers may be scattered across the globe, but that doesn’t mean your servers should be. To achieve the microsecond improvements in latency that automated trading requires, your servers need to be as close to their data source—the exchange servers—as possible, with a minimum amount of hardware in-between. Savvis makes that possible with Proximity Hosting.

With Savvis Proximity Hosting, your trading servers occupy the same physical space—our data center—as the trading infrastructure for major exchanges. The result: You shave microseconds off the latency of your trading applications by reducing the distance that data travels.

With Savvis Proximity Hosting, you can:

• Dramatically reduce latency by establishing an algorithmic trading presence closer to sources of market data
• House your financial and trading infrastructure in the same data centers where major exchange servers reside
• Connect your equipment to a variety of services
• Take advantage of Savvis’ full suite of VPN and Internet services
• Count on the backing and support of Savvis’ on-site technology professionals
• Free your staff to focus on core business functions
