Did You Know?
When a leading IT service provider needed to optimise their electronic trading platform, Caspian One helped automate infrastructure, enhance system resilience, and streamline client onboarding — ensuring 24/7 availability and improved execution strategies.
This scenario highlights how a leading IT service provider partnered with Caspian One to enhance the resilience, performance, and automation of their electronic trading platforms and client service delivery.
Caspian One delivered full-stack engineering, infrastructure management, and operational optimisation, ensuring 24/7 availability and seamless client onboarding.
The Challenge
As demand for electronic trading surged, a major IT service provider faced increasing pressure to ensure system resilience, optimise execution strategies, and accelerate client onboarding. Their existing infrastructure struggled with latency, connectivity issues, and inefficiencies in deploying and managing global trading environments.
At the same time, their client service delivery processes needed modernisation. The onboarding of new API/FIX-enabled clients was time-consuming, limiting the firm’s ability to scale efficiently. With a growing client base and a rapidly evolving market, the company required a strategic technology overhaul to remain competitive.
Our Approach
Caspian One partnered with the client to deliver full-stack engineering expertise and infrastructure automation through Terraform and Ansible, embedding Infrastructure-as-Code best practices to improve system stability and scalability.
By implementing a structured approach to execution optimisation, latency management, and global trading connectivity, we ensured that the platform could sustain high-frequency trading activity without disruption. In parallel, we automated client onboarding workflows, reducing time-to-market for new customers and improving operational efficiency.
The Outcome
By integrating automation and resilience-focused enhancements, the client’s electronic trading platform now operates with 24/7 availability, improved stability, and faster execution speeds. Client onboarding has been streamlined, allowing the company to scale at pace while maintaining high service quality.
What This Meant for the Client:
More than just an infrastructure upgrade, this transformation future-proofed the client’s trading operations.
With a fully optimised platform, they can now focus on driving innovation, expanding their market reach, and delivering an enhanced trading experience without being constrained by legacy inefficiencies.
