Better Markets Technology: How Fast is Sub-Millisecond?

ATLAS is a headless exchange built for the future of global markets. With no frontend or consumer application, ATLAS acts as universal backend for trading venues, who own the trading experience, distribution, and can capture the majority of the economics – all without having to build an exchange from scratch. ATLAS is built on top of Zero to deliver unrivalled performance, with sub-millisecond latency and throughput capability an order of magnitude greater than current market demand.

But just how fast is sub-millisecond? The answer: dramatically faster than the human eye can detect. In this demo, we compare ATLAS' performance with common latency figures present in onchain trading venues. Because it's built on Zero, ATLAS delivers unparalleled performance – and with further optimization, the delta will only increase.
