When it comes to high frequency trading servers, several elements are key. CPUs being one of them. Fresh off the back of the recent AMD Ryzen 7000 series launch,  we can expect to see the new Ryzen 9 7950X, Ryzen 9 7900X, Ryzen 7 7700X, and Ryzen 5 7600X released on September 27th.

Low latency is extremely important for certain use cases. It’s important for CDNs as they stream at the edge. It can also be the difference in whether you make a profit or a loss. This is the case when it comes to trading servers.

Creating a low latency server can be imperative for many use cases, gaming servers, high frequency trading servers, ingress/egress with live streaming platforms and much more. We realize that everyone’s low latency is also case-by-case. 

Building a private GPU cloud can be an extremely hard task and it’s a task that has many components. The first thing to identify is whether you need a fully networked GPU cloud or do your workloads just require an integrated GPU server?

With rising power costs and with data centers passing this cost on as well as space being a premium in particular markets, it’s important to make sure you use a solution that maximizes power and space costs. 

AMD finally announced the new line of Ryzen 7000 processors on August 29th. This is a very exciting development for AMD and for the general GPU market. They’ll be available on September 27th. Being a long-term partner of AMD, we can help you with building out both your AMD servers and AMD workstations. 

We’re starting to see more and more information regarding Intel Raptor Lake appear, including SKUs. Hardware leakers have has managed to release an apparent screenshot from Amazon UK, which had some valuable information regarding the upcoming CPUs.

Trading servers go through a lot of changes on a regular basis as the ever-changing landscape for tick-to-trade latency continues to improve. CPUs, FPGAs, NICs, network stack enhancements, and choices of data centers with proximity to key systems, are just some of the elements of a trading server that need to be considered for optimal latency, which in the case of a trading server, means maximizing your yields.

With the number of drives available now and the amount of drive types, it’s hard to say which disk setup is optimal for you. Our RAID calculator is a great way to determine the size and amount of disks. Here we’ll talk through some of the pros and cons of some of the RAID modes.
