    Case Study
    Frame Relay - NYFIX
    NYFIX commissioned Ventus Networks to provide a single-source solution that included supporting trade execution and transaction transport to NYFIX's primary and secondary processing centers for delivery of sensitive financial information.
    "Under this contract, Ventus Networks provides us with competitive pricing and an extremely high quality of service as well as providing and managing the circuit order, installation and maintenance process for a key portion of NYFIX's global network. This is especially important as we are expanding our network infrastructure, both domestically and globally. It is important that our network infrastructure investments allow us to reliably process hundreds of millions of shares on a daily basis."
    -- John Knuff, NYFIX Senior VP and Head of Network Engineering
    Mission
    The NYFIX Network provides unsurpassed electronic connectivity between brokerage firms, asset management companies, exchange floors, global exchanges and ECNs/ATSs, enabling the transmission of orders, executions, indications of interest, and trade advertisements. NYFIX's electronic trading technologies help institutional News/Press achieve superior operational efficiencies through every stage of their trading cycles.



    Order
    NYFIX needed to lower costs while ensuring scalability, accurate custom billing, and proactive hands-on management of the network. Network administration was outsourced to Ventus Networks.

    Implementation and Management
    NYFIX's many network components and characteristics had to be totally integrated and managed centrally by Ventus Networks, which devised a plan to migrate all network administration duties to its data center team. Key was ensuring no disruption of the network during this transition and providing enhanced security and flexibility once Ventus Networks took control.

    Network Security
    Because NYFIX processes billions of electronic transactions annually, its business requires high levels of network security. Ventus Networks complies with Gramm, Lesch, Bliley Act and regulatory financial requirements regarding network security.

    Customized Billing
    The large size of the NYFIX network, and its many moving parts presented a challenge to the monitoring and auditing staff. The project required consolidation of data for reporting and billing purposes, according to specific requirements set forth by the NYFIX. Ventus Networks designed a custom invoice that is easy to read, accurate and completely electronic for easy reference and payment processing.
