BNP, Quincy Tap Enyx FPGA Handlers for Low-Latency Data

Under the terms of the partnership, BNP and Enyx will integrate their hardware acceleration technologies to improve real-time data processing, and Alexandre Benech, global co-head of electronic market making and commerce at BNP, will join the vendor’s board of directors.

Meanwhile, low-latency microwave data network provider Quincy Data is deploying nxFeed to support its Quincy Extreme Data low-latency datafeed.

The news follows Enyx’s rollout of a new underlying platform for nxFeed, the FPB2 platform, which leverages hardware manufacturer Xilinx’s Virtex UltraScale+ FPGA to reduce wire-to-wire processing latency by more than 30 percent, while more than doubling its symbol capacity, and adding features such as PTP timestamping, better publication filtering and granularity, and continuous trading book uncross for by-order protocols.
