IB colocating nearby

Where can I get a virtual server near the Interactive Brokers data centre?

 

call IB and ask.

Virtual will be tough though. if its in a cloud there really is no telling where you are and what your ping times will be.

 

IB are not saying more than they are in Chicago and Greenwich. Can anybody recommend a host nearby?

 

it's hard..isn't?

i'm trying to collocate with my broker,but i was unable to locate the broker's address

what is the point of collocating with broker anyway? with exchange-it does make sense,but broker? they can hold your data,orders for as long as they need it

 

I am in a building on another continent that does not have ups backup for the comms room. Locating on a server nearby would solve some of these issues.

 

make sense.
but they have offices all over the world. however-Greenwich is main one.

 

Don't they have a European server farm?

 

Yeah, IIRC it's in the UK.

 

It is in Zug.

 

Nice location.
