Colo2.0

The Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) partnered with Beeks to revolutionise its colocation services through the introduction of Colo 2.0, powered by Beeks Exchange Cloud. This innovative, cloud-based infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) solution transformed JSE’s operations by providing its clients with low-latency connectivity and rapid onboarding capabilities.

Key Achievements:

Rapid Client Onboarding: JSE members can now access trading and market data within 24 hours, significantly reducing time-to-market.

Cost-Effective Access: JSE clients, including local brokers and international participants, benefit from a cost-efficient colocation solution, eliminating the need for heavy infrastructure investment.

Increased Trading Liquidity: By attracting more foreign participants through enhanced access, JSE has boosted trading volume and improved liquidity in the market.

New Revenue Stream: Colo 2.0 has turned JSE’s colocation facility from a cost centre into a profit centre, generating annuity revenue while defending its core business.

Scalable and Secure: The JSE’s infrastructure is now hyper-scalable, resilient, and compliant, with on-demand access to analytics and private cloud computing.

       Colo 2.0 has transformed our infrastructure, delivering new annuity revenue while enhancing our core business. By offering cost-effective, cloud-based colocation, we’ve significantly reduced barriers for our clients and improved market access across local and international participants.

Client Success:
JSE’s collaboration with Beeks has positioned it as a leading exchange in Africa, offering cutting-edge infrastructure to both local and international market participants. The launch of Colo 2.0 has further strengthened the JSE’s market presence, showcasing the potential of cloud-based colocation services to enhance operational efficiency and profitability.
