Emerging Technology Forum: St. Louis IT Start-Up Impacts Wall Street
Exegy, an entrepreneurial company, is breaking barriers with innovation in the financial transaction processing world by coupling a massively parallel system that exploits a hardware-software combination to optimize processing. The patented hardware-acceleration technology incorporates the unique flexibility and adaptability of field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs).

Capabilities of the custom appliance, such as processing 2 million messages per second with a latency of <80 micro-seconds, are providing their clients with substantial competitive advantages.

The company’s founder and venture capitalist will present how Exegy successfully applied this new technology in the financial services industry.
