EP3: Exchanges Made Easy™
Using advanced technology from trusted market experts, EP3 is the breakthrough exchange platform and order matching engine developed to make it easier to launch a new exchange, improve the performance of a current exchange, or expand into a non-traditional asset class.
A Trusted Name in Tech Since 1998
EP3 was incubated within Connamara Systems — a leading capital markets software engineering provider since 1998 — then spun out into Connamara Technologies in 2022. The engineers at Connamara Technologies have deep experience in the rigors necessary to build applications for trading and capital markets. For customers, this means EP3 is built for the scale and reliability that capital markets require.
Cutting-Edge Technology
EP3 is the third version of our exchange platform that has evolved over 10+ years. The creators of EP3 took the lessons learned from previous versions and applied them from scratch to build an exchange platform and order matching engine that leverages the scale, reliability, performance, and flexibility afforded by modern software architecture and deployment methods like agile development and cloud deployment.
Rapid Implementation
EP3 can be deployed quickly and easily to cloud, hybrid-cloud, and on-premises environments with the use of modern orchestration and containerization methods. This means that EP3 customers can be up and running quickly, focusing on building the business of the exchange, not the exchange technology.
Exceptional Professional Support and Services
Our Professional Services team can develop solutions around EP3 to address the needs of the market or asset class you are targeting. Our Support Service team is available 24×7 to help keep your exchange running smoothly.
