Case Study: CME Group achieves flexible, cost-effective market data access with Looker

CME Group Helping investors mitigate risk and capitalise on opportunities with real-time access to market data in the cloud

CME Group, the world’s leading derivatives marketplace, needed a better way to deliver real-time market data to customers who wanted faster, easier, and more cost-effective cloud access. Working with Looker, CME Group sought to modernize a decades-old data delivery model and support firms that rely on timely futures and options data to manage risk and make investment decisions.

Looker helped CME Group build a flexible, on-demand market data service in the cloud, enabling real-time and delayed data delivery through a pay-as-you-go model. The solution expanded global reach across more than 20 locations, supported up to 10,000 subscribers on a single data stream, and reduced customer data access costs to about 10% of traditional methods, with some customers saving thousands of dollars per month.
