A few miles north, in an unmarked building on a street corner in Mahwah, sit the servers that move trades on the New York Stock Exchange; an almost equal distance to the south, in Carteret, are Nasdaq’s servers.

Nasdaq OMX Group doesn’t own any data centers, but leases a number of facilities. The primary data center for Nasdaq OMX Group (NDAQ) is housed in a Verizon Business facility in Carteret, New Jersey, while its backup facility is operated out of a Verizon Business site in northern Virginia. In Dec. 2009 NASDAQ OMX expanded its colocation agreement with Verizon Business to offer additional colocation space to trading firms engaged in high-frequency trading.

NASDAQ also uses the Amazon Web Services cloud computing platform to data on historic trades and lets investors analyze pricing in relation to news events and earnings calls to gauge the market response. Robert Waghorne, Senior Vice President of European Markets Technology at NASDAQ OMX Group, recently discussed the company’s operations at the DataCenterDynamics NY conference.
