Chicago Mercantile Exchange Uses Red Hat Enterprise Linux to Double Daily Trades and Halve Hardware Costs

Overview For the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), time is literally money. The more trades the futures exchange can complete in a day, the more money it makes. That is exactly what's happened since the CME initiated its migration from legacy Sun Solaris UNIX systems to Red Hat Enterprise Linux in early 2004. The futures exchange doubled the number of daily trades performed electronically from nearly 1 million in August 2003 to 2.2 million in October 2004 on its CME Globex electronic trading platform. The CME chose Red Hat Enterprise Linux over rival Linux offerings because of Red Hat's proven track record for technical excellence and superior service and support.
