Eurex Exchange’s new trading architecture: impact on existing Eurex interfaces

Eurex Exchange will introduce its new trading architecture on December 3, 2012.
In general, access to the new trading architecture is only possible via the interfaces introduced together with the new trading architecture. During the product migration period, where products will be migrated in a stepwise approach from the current Eurex® system to the new trading architecture, the new interfaces must be used to trade migrated products and the current interfaces are required to trade products still active on the current Eurex® system.
Some of the current Eurex interfaces will be partially supported for a period of time after the migration of the last product. However, later in 2013, these Eurex interfaces will be completely decommissioned.
This circular provides an overview of the decommissioning schedule for the current Eurex interfaces. More details on the support of the current Eurex interfaces and the planned decommissioning approach will be available in a dedicated document “Impact on existing Interfaces” and in a screencast on this topic. Both resources will be available on the Eurex website www.eurexchange.com.
