Challenges

One of the firm’s highest priorities was delivering a robust and ever-more-performant technology platform as a means of optimizing the performance and productivity of its quants and technologists. The demands on technology infrastructure at the firm were significant

Storage capacity was doubling every 18 months.
Legacy storage architecture was not adequately supporting developers and quantitative researchers.
Simulations required greater IOPS and bandwidth than legacy storage could provide.
The business was unable to fully leverage new technologies such as Spark and AI.

Results

Business Transformation

Quantitative researchers can now run more simulations faster, accelerating time-to-market for new investment models and raising the probability of improved returns for investors.

IT Transformation

Up to 600,000 IOPS and 6GBs bandwidth provide more than sufficient processing power for the most demanding simulations.
Quantitative researchers benefit from 10x-20x processing improvement.
Highly scalable Pure FlashBlade™ architecture provides an on-demand path for future growth in capacity.

A 10x-20x improvement in performance can be a gamechanger when it comes to creating a time-to-market competitive advantage for us.
