CME Group Completes Cloud Migration Milestones
CME Group has completed initial performance testing for its cloud-based trading platform, CME Globex. The company announced faster-than-expected progress in the migration of its markets to Google Cloud, including improved round-trip times and accelerated construction of the Aurora Cloud Region co-location facility. This new region is set to support ultra-low latency trading and will be available for client testing by mid-2027. The livestock market is scheduled to migrate directly from the Aurora site in late 2027, eliminating an earlier plan that required interim relocation to Dallas. CME Group's CEO Terry Duffy highlighted the company’s commitment to delivering cloud-based solutions ahead of schedule and ensuring clients can access both managed services and co-location capabilities. CME Group is a global leader in derivatives trading, offering products across major asset classes including interest rates, equities, foreign exchange, energy, agricultural commodities, and more. The migration aims to enhance performance while maintaining the reliability expected from one of the world's largest clearinghouses.
