Nasdaq offers all customers the opportunity to co-locate their servers and equipment within the Nasdaq Data Center, providing proximity to the speed and liquidity of all of our Nordic markets. Through co-location, trading participants, vendors and service providers are able to reduce latency and network complexity by utilizing high-density cabinets and a single hand-off for all Nasdaq Nordic markets. Nasdaq offers a wide variety of connectivity options and market data to fit your firm's specific network and trading strategy needs.

About the Service

Cabinet Reservation Program

The Cabinet Reservation Program (CRP) gives co-location customers the ability to reserve cabinets and power at a reduced rate allowing customers to plan for future growth and reserve space as close to their existing cabinets as possible. Reservation options may have an open duration or an agreed expiry date.
Disaster Recovery Site

Co-location customers can enhance their business continuity plans by purchasing cabinets and power for a lower price at the Nasdaq Nordic Disaster Recovery (DR) site.

In the event of unavailability at our primary site or site fail-over, customers subscribing to this service can continue running their latency-critical business from cabinets located at the DR site and with the same service levels provided to the primary co-location site.

Contact us to learn more about co-lo at the DR site.
Storage

Nasdaq offers a dedicated steel-mesh cage in the Co-Location Service Area based on your space and power needs. Nasdaq's experienced co-location professionals can configure a custom co-location cage to accommodate a wide array of free-standing equipment and give you an additional layer of protection.

Nasdaq offers cold storage facility in the data center to co-location customers. The storage space is equipped with features such as smoke detection units, fire suppression systems and tightly controlled access.

Contact us to learn more about cages and storage facilities.
Precision Time Protocol (PTP)

MiFID II mandates clock synchronization at European exchanges and trading firms.

Nasdaq seeks to offer a Precision Time Protocol (PTP) service for its Nordic Co-Location customers at the Vasby datacenter to meet such requirements. Customers subscribing to the service will be using the same clock source as the Nasdaq trading systems. The service is utilizing the PTPv2 protocol to synchronize clocks to achieve nanosecond accuracy and can be used for:

  • Time Synchronization
  • Troubleshooting
  • Compliance
  • Fine Tuning Trading Algorithms
  • Latency Calculations
  • Precisions Trade Capture

Using GPS Common View Time Transfer, Nasdaq is continuously comparing its time representation with UTC(SP), as realized by RISE Research Institutes of Sweden. Repeated calibrations of Nasdaq's timing infrastructure assure UTC traceability and clients can use published reports to demonstrate their traceability to UTC.

The PTP service is available to order via the Co-Lo & Connectivity Console.
