Strategy and Solutions
The client was a European brokerage supporting high-volume retail and professional trading across multiple venues. Its legacy execution engine performed adequately during normal conditions, but struggled during market spikes when latency, queuing, and throttling caused order delays and operational risk. To modernize execution performance and improve reliability under stress, the brokerage partnered with Zymr to rebuild its trading engine with a modular, scalable architecture.
During volatile market windows, the legacy engine could not maintain consistent execution speed or stability. The platform lacked modern scalability patterns, making it difficult to absorb burst traffic without increasing latency or introducing outages. The brokerage also needed multi-exchange connectivity via FIX, real-time liquidity routing, and clean modularity so execution services could evolve without risky platform-wide releases. The modernization had to deliver measurable latency improvements while maintaining strict uptime expectations and operational continuity.
Zymr helped the brokerage replace a brittle legacy engine with a modern execution platform built for volatility. The new architecture improved speed, routing intelligence, and reliability at scale, giving the brokerage the resilience needed to compete during peak-market conditions without outages or performance trade-offs.
Zymr designed and delivered a high-speed, modular trading system built on a microservices framework, engineered for low-latency execution and peak-load stability.
