Case Study: TMX Group accelerates cloud provisioning and strengthens security with HashiCorp Terraform

Canadian Stock Exchange Provider Sees Big Gains In Cloud Provisioning For Developers With Hashicorp Terraform, While Keeping A Close Watch On Security

TMX Group, the Canadian stock exchange and market infrastructure provider, needed to speed up cloud provisioning across multiple business units while standardizing deployment practices and tightening security and auditability. Working with HashiCorp, the company turned to Terraform and Vault to replace manual, inconsistent infrastructure processes and eliminate burdensome access key management.

HashiCorp’s Terraform and Vault helped TMX Group automate infrastructure as code, reuse pre-approved modules, and enforce policy-driven provisioning across teams. The results included up to 75% faster infrastructure provisioning, container deployment time cut from one month to one day, and movement from development to production in one week, while reducing access key renewal time from 180 days to 7 days and improving security and compliance.
