CameronFIX Flagship FIX Engine
Achieve optimized trading performance when utilizing CameronFIX to connect with internal and external counterparties. Avoid connectivity latency, lost messages and down-time.
In 2010 CameronFIX celebrates 13 years and seven major version releases, while maintaining reference standard core architecture. Used by larger financial institutions worldwide, CameronFIX routinely processes more than 600,000,000+ transactions every day.
Financial institutions rely on CameronFIX technology for all their FIX connectivity requirements. Sell-side and Buy-side firms use CameronFIX for FIX-enabling internal electronic systems such as their order management and trading applications.
Increased automation on both the exchange and investor sides has led to a surge in trading volumes, in turn placing unprecedented demand on FIX solutions. This provides a challenge not only for the FIX engine itself, but also the infrastructure surrounding it, in particular network bandwidth.

- Smart use of low level networking
CameronFIX Delivers:
- Scalable, robust and globally proven FIX-enabling toolbox
- High availability
