An agency-only institutional brokerage, Dallas-based Capital Institutional Services (CAPIS) was looking for a technology infrastructure that would be reliable and secure, and offer the processing capability to provide the requisite speed of execution that is critical for today's market participants. To this end, it has turned to a solution that brings together Appro's Blade PC solution with the KVM (keyboard, video and mouse) extension capabilities of Avocent Digital Desktops. As a result, CAPIS traders now have machines with more memory and processing horsepower than they used previously, according to Wesley Wempner, vice president for technology/support with CAPIS. And because the blade servers are isolated from the trading floor in a safer and more stable environment, the traders benefit from fewer computer failures and greater uptime. Additionally, CAPIS enjoys more flexibility in its ability to move personnel from system to system.
