Eurex
Together with the implementation of Eurex Release 12.0 and the next phase of the Eurex Technology Roadmap in November 2009, Eurex has again made significant system enhancements to accelerate trading speed and throughput as well as to increase system capacity. As a result of these enhancements, Eurex will adjust the Architecture Throttle and increase system transaction limits in order to realign them with the actual system capacity and current market activity.
In addition Eurex will also increase the maximum number of Session IDs which Members can order for the Enhanced Transaction Solution in the production environment. The adjustments to the Architecture Throttle and system transaction limits will become effective on April 1, 2010. The additional session IDs can be ordered with immediate effect.
Eurex will also enhance its existing connection portfolio for proximity services and the London financial center. In future, connections with total bandwidths of 600 Mbit/s (proximity and London) or one Gbit/s (proximity only) for the exclusive receipt of Market Data via the Enhanced Broadcast Solution can be ordered.
Members are also advised that the current VALUES API Heartbeat facility and the report TC531 – Daily Strategy Quote Maintenance will be decommissioned from the Eurex® system on March 31, 2010.
