Accelerating Quant Business Growth and Capture New Revenue Stream with KX and AWS 

As financial institutions aim to expand their quant business and adopt higher frequency strategies, they often encounter significant infrastructure challenges. Existing solutions can struggle with performance and latency issues and consolidating real-time and historical data management becomes crucial. These hurdles impede their ability to quickly capture market opportunities and scale their operations effectively.


During this event, as we indulge in food, drinks, and networking with peers and experts, we will delve into

  • discussing on addressing this challenge and how to achieve faster time to market, enhance data performance, and focus on high-value analytics
  • sharing how a customer alleviates these burdens and enabled aggressive growth plans that helps to capture market opportunities more efficiently
  • including a live demo on the scalability and pattern matching with the solution from KX and AWS

Register your interest today and we will be in touch with you to confirm your seat. We hope to see you there!

      Designing a Scalable Distributed Cache for ML Training Datasets in the Cloud – Bin Fan, Founding Member, Alluxio

      Bin Fan, Founding Engineer at Alluxio, will go over insights from building a distributed cache for ML training.
      In the rapidly evolving landscape of machine learning, efficiently managing and accessing large datasets is critical for training models at scale. In this session, Bin Fan, Founding Engineer at Alluxio, will share insights from the journey of creating a scalable and reliable distributed cache specifically designed for ML training datasets and checkpoints on popular frameworks like PyTorch, Ray, and TensorFlow.
      The talk will explore the distinct requirements of machine learning compared to traditional big data analytics—where Alluxio was initially developed. Bin will highlight the challenges posed by ML-specific data access patterns, diverse data formats, and the need for optimal resource management in these environments. He will discuss how these factors influenced the design and optimization of a distributed cache that meets the stringent demands of modern ML workloads.
      The session will conclude with an analysis of benchmark results, showcasing the performance gains and scalability improvements achieved through this distributed caching solution, and how it leads to enhanced GPU utilization and overall efficiency in ML training pipelines.
