With U.S. and international financial institutions looking to participate in the global equities, futures and options marketplaces, ultra low- latency network performance is becoming increasingly more important as market data applications must deliver information at ever-increasing rates and with minimal latency. Market data arriving even a few milliseconds late can have negative impact on a financial trading firm.
