UK-based retail stockbroker CMC Markets has partnered with Hewlett Packard Enterprise to modernise and enhance its Australian operations.
Under the partnership, CMC Markets will adopt HPE GreenLake cloud infrastructure, which includes HPE ProLiant DL360 and HPE ProLiant DX380 servers with HPE Alletra 9000 storage for mission-critical workloads.
CMC Markets APAC and Canada Director Matthew Lewis said the adoption of the new architecture will allow the company to scale based on fluctuating market demands, while also meeting security requirements.
“The need for a highly responsive and adaptable IT infrastructure is critical in the fast-paced financial sector,โ he said.
“With HPE GreenLake, we are not only able to scale our operations more efficiently but also ensure that our trading platforms are always available and performing at their best to enhance our customerโs experience and maintain our competitive edge.”
Additionally, CMC Markets will hand over the management of its IT assets over to HPE Services so it can focus on expanding its product and customer offerings.
HPE highlighted how the partnership is exemplary of how technology drives business performance and delivers improved customer experience.
“Our collaboration with CMC Markets is a powerful example of how HPE GreenLake can transform the IT landscape for financial services providers, offering them the flexibility to innovate and expand their services without being hindered by traditional IT constraints,โ HPE South Pacific VP and managing director Chris Weber stated.
CDW has been charged with transacting the deal between CMC and HPE.
