Fundamentals

Latency Has Two Enemies

To build a fast DMA platform, you need to defeat both - not just one.

📍

1. Physics

Light travels through fiber optic cable at roughly 5 microseconds per mile. The further your algorithm is from the CME matching engine in Aurora, Illinois, the more inescapable latency you accumulate.

Every additional network "hop" - through a router, to a separate risk server, across a datacenter - adds latency that cannot be engineered away. Physics is non-negotiable.

The solution: co-locate your strategy directly at the CME exchange, on the same machine as your gateway.
⚙️

2. Technology

Even at the ideal physical location, software overhead can introduce hundreds of microseconds. The Linux kernel, TCP/IP stack, context switches, memory copies, and locks all eat latency one layer at a time.

Most off-the-shelf FIX engines and DMA platforms were not built for nanosecond-scale execution. They pay unnecessary overhead at every hop in the data path.

The solution: bypass the kernel entirely, use lock-free shared memory, and pin resources to dedicated CPU cores.
Architecture

Built for Microsecond Execution

Three engineering decisions that eliminate latency at every level of the stack - from the OS to the exchange.

Infrastructure

CME Colocation, Managed for You

Your strategy runs at the exchange - without managing infrastructure.

What's in the Colocation Container

The Colocated Container plan gives you a dedicated, fully managed environment inside CME's colocation facility - physically adjacent to the exchange's matching engines.

Developer API

Simple API.
Institutional Performance.

Despite the complexity underneath - kernel bypass, shared memory, lock-free queues - the API your quants write against is clean and minimal. Implement callbacks, call nanoconda::start(), and your strategy is live.

The same code runs in the simulator, against PCAP or DataBento DBN replay, and in production - no environment-specific branches, no integration rewrites between stages. A complete working strategy is fewer than 50 lines of boilerplate.

Backtesting Simulator

Validate Before You Risk Capital

The $150 / 3-month license gives full access to PCAP and DataBento DBN replay plus the CME-compatible trading simulator - no exchange account or FCM required. The simulator supports all CME order types: FAK (Fill-and-Kill), Iceberg, Limit, Market, Stop, and Stop-Limit, with fill logic that mirrors live CME Globex behavior.

Your strategy uses the exact same C++ API as production. Switching from backtesting to live DMA requires no code changes.
