Case Study: FIX Flyer achieves high-performance, scalable Managed FIX trading in 90 days with Equinix

FIX Flyer leverages Platform Equinix to create high performance, large-volume Managed FIX trading application for a major investment bank

FIX Flyer is a New York–based software firm that builds high-performance infrastructure for electronic trading. When a major investment bank needed a reliable, globally connected hosting partner to support a high‑volume Managed FIX solution and eliminate time‑consuming manual trade-entry into its risk systems, FIX Flyer required a scalable, low‑latency data center platform that could grow with its business.

Leveraging Platform Equinix, FIX Flyer delivered a fully redundant Managed FIX SaaS in under 90 days, providing the performance, connectivity and scalability required for mission‑critical equity and derivatives trading. The solution eliminated double data entry by streaming real‑time trade execution into the bank’s risk platform, delivered a holistic view of risk, and supported rapid geographic expansion while allowing FIX Flyer to operate the service with a very small team.
