Case Study: a large US-based online brokerage improves application performance and cuts root-cause analysis time with ExtraHop

Large US-Based Online Brokerage improves benchmark performance by over 70% with ExtraHop

A large US-based online brokerage sought to improve the performance of its trading application to remain competitive. Previously relying on a variety of siloed monitoring tools, their IT operations team spent an average of 45 minutes identifying the root cause of performance issues. To break down these silos and gain real-time visibility across their entire application environment, they turned to the ExtraHop platform.

By implementing ExtraHop, the brokerage gained comprehensive visibility across all application tiers, enabling proactive issue detection and better collaboration between development and operations teams. The measurable results included a greater than 70% improvement in industry benchmark performance metrics for order execution. ExtraHop also transformed their operations, allowing them to triage issues in under five minutes and avoid wasting time on inefficient investigations.
