Maximize Alpha. Process Faster. Minimize Compute Costs.
A high-performance Analytics Engine, Exasol can help hedge funds maximize alpha by leveraging its Massively Parallel Processing (MPP) architecture to execute queries and complex models faster than any other database at the lowest price/performance ratio in the industry.
Whether deployed as your primary data warehouse or as a high-speed accelerator alongside your existing database, Exasol seamlessly integrates into your infrastructure, whether on-premises, in your hosted cloud (AWS, Azure or GCP), or even within hybrid deployments. Its self-optimizing capabilities minimize the need for manual indexing and performance tuning.
Engineered to Maximize Alpha

Run complex simulations with near-instant query execution, optimizing position sizing, risk models, and strategy iteration. Use tools that you’re already comfortable with, like Python, R, Java and SQL. Reduce the running time of complex models to gain competitive advantage.
A quant trading firm leveraging Exasol reduced simulation and analysis run-times by 72%, achieving a 3.5x boost in analytical performance. Another hedge fund processes 8 million queries daily, each completed in just 0.5 seconds on average.
Extract rapid insights from vast alternative datasets using Exasol’s high-speed columnar storage and rapid data ingestion, ensuring highly efficient data compression and retrieval.
Our high-performance architecture enables unstructured data analytics, allowing quants to extract insights from complex datasets like PDFs, earnings reports, and financial news.
Now you can analyze massive datasets, including tick data, order book history, and alternative datasets like satellite imagery, climate data, and web scrapes, without worrying about performance.
Run AI and Machine Learning models at scale and speed, leveraging Exasol’s MPP architecture and efficient memory management. Perform feature engineering, model training, and inference directly within the database, leveraging in-database analytics and distributed in-memory processing for faster results.
Cut Costs, Not Performance
Exasol eliminates unpredictable IT expenses and hidden infrastructure costs, giving hedge funds a clear view of their data stack spending while maximizing performance. Unlike legacy database solutions that require expensive optimizations and unpredictable scaling costs, Exasol is built for efficiency, automation, and cost control.
Smarter resource allocation
Self-optimizing capabilities reduce manual maintenance, allowing your team to focus on trading strategies rather than database administration.
Deploy to where you are most comfortable
Whether on-premise, in a hosted cloud environment or a hybrid model, you can deploy Exasol based on your company’s skillsets and cloud strategy. Exasol can even host and manage your deployment, enabling you to focus on results rather than infrastructure considerations.
No surprise costs
Transparent, predictable pricing helps keep your IT budget under control, minimizing unexpected licensing fees or performance-related expenses.
Alpha Moves Fast.
So Should You!
With Exasol, hedge funds can iterate on their trading models faster than ever before, without concern about compute costs.
