Case Study: Exness manages petabytes of trading data with MinIO AIStor

Exness manages petabytes of trading data with MinIO and hits 200 Gbps throughput

Exness, a global leader in online trading, faced the challenge of managing petabytes of data generated by its platform. With data volumes exploding and cloud storage costs rising, they needed a high-performance, cost-effective storage solution that was fully compatible with their existing S3 API-based workflows. The vendor, MinIO, provided its AIStor object storage solution to address these needs.

The solution involved migrating their data lake to an on-premises infrastructure powered by MinIO. This move consolidated five workloads into one tech stack, delivering sustained peak throughput of 200 Gbps and handling a 2.5x growth in their data lake. MinIO provided the performance, reliability, and S3 compatibility required for critical operations like AI/ML workloads and disaster recovery, resulting in significant cost savings and operational efficiency for Exness.
