Case Study: itarle achieves rapid customer connections and CHF250K AWS savings with Equinix

Algorithmic trading provider chooses Equinix to underpin its cloud strategy

itarle AG, an algorithmic trading provider for banks and brokerages, faced rapid growth and needed to shift from wholly owned storage to a hybrid model combining hosted, private cloud and owned racks. Managing all data in-house was diverting resources from its core trading business, and the firm required scalable, secure access to AWS plus the fastest possible connectivity to financial clients and exchanges.

By colocating in Equinix’s Hong Kong HK1 and London Slough facilities and using Equinix Cloud Exchange for direct AWS access, itarle gained immediate cross-connections to brokers, exchanges and multiple clouds. The solution cut customer connection times from weeks to a day, generated over CHF250,000 in savings, delivered direct access across 16 major finance centers, and provided on‑demand scalability to absorb demand spikes and speed new customer onboarding.
