Even a few additional milliseconds between receiving a market update and submitting an order can affect execution quality.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Challenge<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ApexQuant initially operated its trading infrastructure from general-purpose cloud environments. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Compute performance was sufficient, but network paths to several of the company&#8217;s primary exchange gateways were inconsistent. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depending on routing and network conditions, latency to critical trading endpoints could fluctuate between 8 and 20+ ms, with occasional spikes significantly above that range.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For latency-sensitive strategies, average ping was not the only concern. The team needed both low latency and predictable latency. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The key requirements were:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">below 5 ms RTT to primary exchange endpoints;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">low jitter and stable network routing;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">strong single-thread CPU performance;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dedicated physical resources;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NVMe storage for high-volume market data;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sufficient network capacity for multiple real-time data feeds.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Solution<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Together with Unihost, ApexQuant selected a dedicated infrastructure location based on actual network tests to the exchange gateways used by its trading platform. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead of choosing the server purely by country or advertised bandwidth, the team tested routing from available Unihost locations and deployed the execution environment where the best network path was available.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The company selected an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X dedicated server for its latency-sensitive trading stack. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 16-core Ryzen platform offers stable frequencies of up to 4.3 GHz, making it particularly suitable for workloads where fast execution of individual processes is more important than simply maximizing the number of CPU cores.

Instead of optimizing for the best occasional response time, ApexQuant gained a much tighter and more predictable latency range.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cFor our execution infrastructure, 20 ms versus 5 ms is not a small difference.
