KVH Proximity Services at KR Data Center 1 (KRDC1) Providing proximity hosting, managed infrastructure, and ultra low-latency connectivity into the Korea Exchange, Asia’s largest derivative market

Asia's Largest Derivative Market Korea Exchange (KRX) holds a significant share of derivative trading in Asia. KVH will support derivative traders in establishing trading environments by providing proximity solutions that contain managed IT infrastructure and operational support.

Derivative trading has been growing rapidly in the Asia-Pacific region, particularly in Korea with the Korea Exchange (KRX) taking the lead. KRX’s derivative matching engine is located in Busan, but accessing this system up until now has been restricted to just through Seoul. In March 2012, KVH entered into a business partnership agreement with Koscom, a subsidiary of KRX, to allow KVH to provide proximity hosting services at KRDC1. Established as an ICT platform to fulfill the mission critical requirements of the Korean financial industry, this data center is located in very close proximity to KRX’s derivative market matching engine, creating an alternative in accessing this trading system and serving as an ideal location for latency-sensitive traders. In addition to proximity colocation hosting, KVH offers managed infrastructure services that include system on-boarding and on-going infrastructure management and operation, as well as ultra low-latency connectivity between KRDC1 and other major Asia-Pacific financial markets. These services, provided as separate offerings or as an all-in-one solution, are designed to meet the requirements of establishing a latency-sensitive trading environment in Korea.
