Building an Event-Driven Stock Platform at Euronext

Euronext has built a brand new market infrastructure and event-driven trading platform called Optiq with Confluent Platform at the core. They replaced their market data gateway with one that handles billions of messages per day, sending market data to vendors and trading members. Confluent Platform also enables them to build applications that interface with clearinghouses, monitor market latency, perform replication for disaster recovery, and store records in a data warehouse in compliance with regulatory requirements. The platform provides a tenfold increase in capacity to ingest messages and an average performance latency as low as 15 microseconds.
