NYSE Euronext Completes NYSE and NYSE Amex Equities Migration

(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — The NYSE Euronext (www.nyse.com) data center in Mahwah, New Jersey, has successfully completed the migration of more than 4,500 equities issues listed on the New York Stock Exchange and NYSE Amex.

According to NYSE Euronext’s Thursday announcement, the NYSE and NYSE Amex equities primary matching engines now reside within the new data center, and NYSE Euronext will begin the migration of its other markets.

Enhancing customers’ trading performance, NYSE Technologies’ diverse product portfolio also offers commercial technology solutions such as co-location services, direct data feeds, on-demand trading infrastructure, as well as its SuperFeed and Risk Management Gateway services.

“The successful move of NYSE and NYSE Amex listed issues into our U.S. data center is truly a technological and operational milestone for NYSE Euronext and our customers,” said Larry Leibowitz, COO, NYSE Euronext.  “Conceived over two years ago, these data centers were built to be our next-generation trading ecosystem and the centerpiece of our vision for the future of global markets.  Their unique combination of high-performance market access, financial technology solutions and market data services demonstrate how we intend to innovate capital markets and empower the trading community.”

First announced in September 2009, the 400,000-square-foot NYSE Euronext data center, a spokesperson said earlier this month, would house all the NYSE-listed stocks from servers in New York City by September, suggesting that the operation may be ahead of schedule.

The successful migration all NYSE and NYSE Amex equities issues to the US liquidity center is indeed a significant phase in the migration of NYSE Euronext’s US markets. NYSE Arca equities and both NYSE Euronext’s US options exchanges (NYSE Arca and NYSE Amex options) are scheduled to complete their transition to Mahwah in the first quarter of 2011.

Customers are expected to experience further performance benefits from the ongoing rollout of the company’s “Universal Trading Platform,” with the addition of the NYSE and NYSE Amex in early 2011.
