CJC achieves Solace Certification

Market data real-time systems support provider CJC has been certified for their expertise with Solace Systems’ market-leading messaging technology, which can serve as a reliable, robust foundation for real-time market data distribution. Solace trained CJC’s entire technical team on the architecture, capabilities, deployment and administration of Solace technology.

Paul Gow, CJC CEO “This certification is yet another link in the chain to where CJC see the future of infrastructure and data delivery.  Recognition and implementation of Solace is increasing as it offers clients faster network throughput and the ability to reduce their data centre footprint and costs. The demand to support Solace from our clients has quadrupled in the last quarter of 2015 prompting us to seek this certification.  The comprehensive training Solace provided has enhanced our engineering skill sets and added a further offering to our current consultancy and 24/7 support model. This asset is already providing our clients with invaluable confidence in our expertise as they seek to transform and cost cut their market data platforms”.

Gow Continues: “This certification enhances the consultancy and managed services we offer.  In addition, as a certified member of Solace’s partner program CJC can test the virtual Solace appliance in the CJC Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS) platform ‘Intelligent Sky’.

Steven Moreton, CJC Senior Technical Director: “These are very exciting times for CJC, our global teams have been providing Solace-centric remote managed support globally for some time, and certification takes this support to another level. Solace is now part of our intense training program for all new technical employees joining the company, including interns and apprentices.  Adding Solace to the Intelligent Sky IaaS environment allows us to offer a test bed where our engineers and clients can develop tools and APIs around Solace technology.  For example, our engineers and developers have worked together to create big data visualisations of Solace infrastructure performance, events and usage”.

Denis King, Solace Systems Senior VP of Field Operations and Alliances: “Our technology has been meeting market data distribution needs for top financial institutions for over a decade. With their deep expertise in real-time market data systems, CJC is uniquely qualified to help capital markets participants employ Solace technology. By doing so they can improve the quality, predictability and speed of market data they distribute to human traders and algorithmic trading engines within their organization, collocated at exchanges, and around the world.
