Pico launches Corvil Cloud Analytics as trading industry moves into cloud
“Since Corvil Cloud Analytics is software only, this accelerates our deployments and also provides an expedited avenue for proof-of-concept use cases. It’s now easier than ever for clients to access the platform so they can see firsthand what makes Corvil an industry leader in data analytics.”
Pico has launched Corvil Cloud Analytics to expand the reach and visibility of Corvil Analytics into the cloud, with an offering that is simple to scale, easy to deploy and can be up and running in hours.
Corvil Cloud Analytics measures every order, every market data tick, and every packet needed to manage real-time performance in public cloud environments. Its granular, real-time visibility allows users to understand the cause of variable performance that impacts real-time applications running in public cloud.
No CapEx costs, lead times, shipping, and installation challenges
Pico reminded that, with cloud applications, there are no hardware CapEx costs, lead times, or shipping and installation challenges. The offering is available for businesses wanting a competitive edge in the cloud.
Stacie Swanstrom, Chief Product Officer at Pico, said: “As companies look to move real-time applications to the cloud, they struggle with visibility when utilizing existing cloud monitoring solutions. There is a need for deeper visibility to fill those voids, and Corvil Cloud Analytics is the solution, providing market-leading analytics for applications running in the cloud. Corvil Cloud Analytics provides our clients with the real-time analytics required to migrate their most critical workloads to the cloud, with confidence.
“We had the vision to provide clients the same technology, visibility and rich analytics they’ve come to rely on through Corvil. Since Corvil Cloud Analytics is software only, this accelerates our deployments and also provides an expedited avenue for proof-of-concept use cases. It’s now easier than ever for clients to access the platform so they can see firsthand what makes Corvil an industry leader in data analytics.”
