Myricom Adds Design Win for High Frequency Trading with Wall Street Software and Infrastructure Specialist, Trading Physics
ARCADIA, Calif., Jan 30, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- --Achieves 4.0 microsecond latency normalizing US equity depth feeds
Myricom, the technology leader in extreme-performance 10-Gigabit Ethernet solutions specialized for vertical markets, today announces that Trading Physics, a producer of analytic software and custom market data delivery systems, has adopted Myricom's 10G-PCIE2-8C2-2S dual port SFP+ adapters along with Myricom's DBL 2.0(TM) low-latency software for High Frequency Trading (HFT) applications.
"The depth feeds contain all orders placed for equities listed on five exchanges: NYSE, NYSE/ARCA, NASDAQ, BATS, and Direct Edge -- an avalanche of data, and processing this order book data with the lowest possible latency is critical to the success of high frequency trading strategies. A customer asked us to achieve sub-five microsecond latency from the top of the switch to client server delivery. After extensive research we found Myricom's extreme performance low-latency solution to be very attractive. Unlike products from other vendors, Myricom's solution did not require the use of custom server hardware to process the feeds," said Artem Novikov, Founder of Trading Physics. "We ordered network adapters, set up a benchmarking test bed using Myricom native DBL libraries, and rapidly surpassed the target benchmark with production data. The customer is delighted with the results."...

Sub-$1K Timecode-based SYNC NIC General Availability
17/01/12 10:38 Filed in: Time
This month our new 10G-PCIE2-8C2-2S-SYNC dual-SFP+-port adapter has become generally available. It is specifically designed for applications such as cybersecurity and high frequency trading where accurate timestamping, lossless packet sniffing and injection at line rate, and cutting edge latencies are required.
“With Myricom’s new SYNC network adapters, we can timestamp all incoming packets with 1us precision, allowing us to more accurately measure and monitor the performance of our high frequency trading platform,” said Oleg Chernyakhovskiy, CTO, Lynx Capital Partners, a leading provider of high volume, low latency automated trading applications.
“Myricom’s new SYNC adapter makes precise timestamping accessible for the broad 10-Gigabit Ethernet market,” said Dr. Nan Boden, CEO of Myricom. “Our solution, by using a CDMA or GPS timecode source, gives our customers the capability to accurately timestamp packets without having to sacrifice 10GbE throughput as is the case with competing solutions.”

DBL & Accurate Timestamps
Last week Myricom announced the general availability of DBL™ 2.0.2 software for its Myri-10G 10-Gigabit Ethernet network adapters.
DBL 2.0.2 provides low-latency UDP and TCP communication with transparent socket acceleration for high frequency trading (HFT) environments where cutting-edge latency performance and rapid time to deployment are required for business success. DBL 2.0.2 is supported on Linux and Windows platforms.
New features in DBL 2.0.2 include:
- Support for Myricom’s Sub-$1K Timecode-based SYNC
10-Gigabit Ethernet Adapter.
- High accuracy packet timestamping for Cybersecurity
and HFT applications.
- Support for large numbers of multicast groups (>32)
in acceleration mode.
- Support for 32-bit libraries in transparent acceleration.

High Performance Post Production Video Editing

Since Myricom introduced it's line of Myri-10G 10-Gigabit Ethernet network adapters in early 2006 we've offered extreme performance drivers for a wide range of OSes from Apple's OSX through Windows. This has enabled many of the leading edge video editing technology companies to include them in their storage servers and workstations well ahead of the technology curve.
One vendors uses Myri-10G network adapters to combine the performance benefits of iSCSI SAN protocol with NAS functionality and ease of use, all working over a single network infrastructure. The end result is a faster deployment that is easier to manage, and less expensive than an iSCSI SAN solution, and with even faster data access. For color grading and special effects applications working with uncompressed video at 2K, 3K or even 4K resolution, client machines can achieve 800MB/s over a 10GbE connection. This throughput is faster than traditional Fiber Channel.
Another provider using MCS (Multiple Connections per Session), regularly sustains data rates of 1.2GB/s (10bit 35mm) for 4K video.
