Connectivity and Colocation
Connectivity via Service Provider
Application Service Providers (ASPs)
Application Service Providers not only provide order entry, market data as well as other services to their clients, but also supply hosted solutions to members who wish to externalise the management of their infrastructure. ASPs have direct (or indirect) connections to our Primary and Secondary Data Centres and can offer to their clients physical connectivity, mutualised access to MTS's markets. In some cases, ASPs can also offer hosting services directly in colocation in our primary data centre in Aruba IT3 in Bergamo (Italy). Members delegate their connectivity management entirely to their ASP, who will arrange their connection to the trading platform and conduct order entry sessions for both the test (EUA) and production (prod) environments.
ASPs usually hold the ISV status i.e. providing a number of applications to connect to MTS's markets and / or receive market data.

Extranet Service Providers (ESPs)

Become an ASP/ESP
IT providers or software development houses interested in accreditation as an ASP or ESP must have a well-defined legal IT entity. Applications can be made by contacting the Client Services Desk at mts.clientservices@euronext.com
Connectivity via Internet
MTS's markets can also be accessed via public internet. A certificate file will be issued by MTS in order to secure the connection. This includes GUI, FIX AP/Gateway or any preferred OMS/EMS. For more information please contact mts.clientservices@euronext.com.
Independent Software Vendors (ISVs)
MTS has developed strong partnerships with a number of accredited Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) to meet the multiple needs of members that do not wish to develop proprietary software connections to MTS's markets.
Each member firm has different market access and specific tools (e.g. risk management, front-to-back) requirements. Some may develop bespoke trading and information applications, while others prefer to make use of accredited software. To find the software solution that best suits your unique business needs, please consult the accredited list of ISVs below.
The Client Services desk at mts.clientservices@euronext.com or your sales representative can support you in making the right ISV choices for your business.
