LONDON -- Epsilon, a privately owned global communications service provider, was selected by hedge fund cloud specialist Hentsu to deploy its Cloud Link Exchange (CloudLX) cloud connectivity platform and support its cloud solutions for the financial community. Hentsu will use CloudLX to deliver multiple trading connections from production trading environments in cloud platforms like Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Platform directly into trading venues.

Hentsu will use CloudLX to serve the financial community in the UK, the US and Asia. Its customers around the world will benefit from on demand Ethernet with guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS) and Experience (QoE). It provides systematic agility for trading and hedge funds with secure and compliant public cloud environments. CloudLX matches its vision for ‘cloud-first’ solutions that can meet the strict demands of the financial services industry.

“Hentsu has a unique business model that is making it simple and easy for the financial services community to migrate to the cloud. It is bridging the gap between cloud providers and trading venues, and CloudLX will provide a foundation with flexible and high performance cloud connectivity,” said Jerzy Szlosarek, CEO at Epsilon. “Both companies believe in the power of the cloud to reshape industries and are working closely together to deliver innovations that accelerate growth for customers.”

CloudLX provides direct connectivity to AWS, Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure as well as other cloud service providers and global internet exchanges.
