Brendan Foxen, Chief Technology Officer at CMC Markets commented: “Over the last 10 years, our product offering, trades executed and volumes of data have grown considerably. Adopting AWS and using the highest levels of abstraction and native services allows us to develop our product offering with a far greater speed and richness of customer experience, underpinned by the scale and reliability of AWS services.”
For new product builds, CMC Markets will primarily be using AWS’s cloud native, serverless services including AWS Lambda, Amazon API Gateway, AWS Fargate and Amazon DynamoDB. New data management requirements will be addressed through the use of AWS’s data and storage services which includes Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), Amazon Athena, Amazon Redshift and AWS Glue.
