Data Points from NYSE Technologies, Thomson Reuters

Purposely focusing on just a couple of low-latency factoids from recent results ... at NYSE Technologies, revenue was up 14% in the second quarter, to $122 million, driven by “an increase in infrastructure revenue, principally SFTI and data centre fees.” So networks and co-lo are doing pretty good, given the general financial marketplace.

And at Thomson Reuters Markets, the Enterprise division saw its second quarter revenue increase 10% to $312 million, with low-latency data feeds and hosting up 9%.  A total of 12 Elektron hosting centres are operational.  Again, not a bad performance, especially compared to results from the rest of the company's financial markets business, which caused heads to roll.

The white paper A-Team wrote with NYSE Technologies on Demystifying Co-Location (downloadable from low-latency.com) is a good read on how they're approaching hosted services. Their offering may give Thomson Reuters' Elektron a run for its money. While Elektron seems to be doing well, it seems to have been a cause for concern at Thomson Corporate, contributing in part to the latest shake-up.
