A guide for exchange leaders to modernize core systems, covering low-latency engines, security and risk, operational resilience, scalable growth, and build-vs-buy trade-offs.
For exchange executives, CTOs, product and operations leaders facing volatile markets, accelerating compliance changes, and legacy constraints. If you need near-instant execution, seamless scaling, and stronger security, this guide shows what must change and why.
It’s also for teams at digital-asset and multi-asset venues planning upgrades or migrations. If sub-millisecond latency, real-time risk models, and 24/7 throughput are table stakes for you, start here to frame requirements and decisions.
You’ll learn how to evaluate your current stack and pinpoint the gaps that block speed, scale, and integrity. The book outlines four pillars: ultra-low latency and high throughput, security and risk controls, flexibility and operational resilience, and scaling for growth. You’ll also see how modern architectures reduce latency, harden security, and absorb volatility without service disruption.
You’ll be able to compare build-vs-buy trade-offs with concrete inputs: time to market (2–3 years vs. 3–6 months), control, and total cost. The guide then connects technology choices to outcomes across your ecosystem: faster, fair execution for traders; less firefighting for ops and dev; and stronger oversight for regulators, so you can brief stakeholders and move decisively.
