QuantHouse
has completed the first phase of its infrastructure process automation program using cloud-based robot agents to demonstrate their commitment to delivering superior performance and resilience for their ever-growing client base.
By leveraging the advanced cloud-based robot agents for automation, the global provider of end-to-end systematic trading solutions will be able to rapidly add resources to a number of their in-house processes with minimal human intervention, using widely adopted and secure cloud-native technologies that deliver automated deployment and monitoring tasks. This infrastructure process automation initiative also ensures that QuantHouse is well-positioned to expand easily into new markets that trade 24×7.
It remains especially critical during times of uncertainty and volatility that infrastructures operate reliably, efficiently and have the necessary scale to meet ever-growing volumes and message rates.
Emmanuel Carjat, Chief Operating Officer, QuantHouse, said: “QuantHouse has been designing and operating its own private low latency cloud for more than 15 years. With the general availability of advanced cloud management technologies, we are now leveraging those proven cloud-native solutions to fundamentally review how we manage our operations. Using robot agents allows our engineers to spend their time planning for the future while out-tasking standard maintenance and client implementation processes.”
Stephane Leroy, Co-Founder and Chief Revenue Officer, QuantHouse, commented: “Over the last 15 months, QuantHouse has retained steady business growth on-boarding one new hedge fund client every week. These new hedge fund clients place a lot of value in our service resilience and performance. As a consequence, our ability to contract and deliver value to a growing number of customers are among our top priorities at QuantHouse. For this reason, this project is one of our most strategic objectives for 2020 as it combines revenue growth and operations optimization into one single initiative.”
QuantHouse has recently opened its doors to real-time and historical data for cash cryptocurrency pairs through its single API via DVeX, an electronic digital asset exchange owned and operated by DV Chain, part of the DV Trading group of companies.
In late 2019, the firm launched Historical Data on-Demand designed to dramatically speed up the research, development and backtesting phase of any trading strategy. While critical for successful trading, the research, development and backtesting phase has been a historically lengthy and onerous process as market participants have to identify data sources, align formats and code to those data sources, allocate storage capacity to download the necessary files and ultimately incorporate into their trading models to assess the viability of their trading strategy. QuantHouse’s offering includes up to 10 years of historical data on-demand for the US, European and Asian-Pacific markets, available via a web portal and without the need to integrate an API. Historical data can be replayed over prior time periods with the results then being refined and adjusted in order to optimise trading performance, according to the company’s announcement.
