Built for
Microsecond Execution
Every layer of Nanoconda's stack - from hardware to protocol - is engineered to remove latency. Here's exactly how.
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.
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.
How We Solve Both Problems
Three engineering decisions that eliminate latency at every level of the stack.

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.

CME Colocation, Managed for You
Your strategy runs at the exchange - without you managing a single server.
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.
Built for Production Environments
Institutional security, audit trails, and isolation - required by any serious trading operation.
