Options Partners with ZutaCore on Liquid-Cooled Trading Infrastructure

Subscribe to our newsletter

Options Technology has partnered with ZutaCore to deploy high-density, waterless liquid-cooled compute infrastructure across its global financial services platform. The agreement gives Options clients access to ZutaCore’s HyperCool technology, a two-phase, direct-to-chip cooling system designed to support high-power processors while keeping water out of the IT environment. The companies say this can enable higher compute densities while improving efficiency and reliability.

Options plans to integrate the technology into its broader infrastructure offering as rising compute requirements create greater power-density and thermal challenges across financial markets.

While liquid cooling has gained prominence alongside AI infrastructure, Options also sees growing requirements across electronic trading, quantitative analytics, market data processing and real-time risk modelling as these workloads become increasingly compute-intensive.
