FINRA —the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority—is all in on AWS and has gained massive performance improvements in its stock-market surveillance system, including 400 percent faster response times, by using the AWS cloud. FINRA, one of the largest independent securities regulators in the United States, was established to monitor and regulate financial trading practices. The organization is moving all of its IT infrastructure to AWS and closing data centers in the process. FINRA is moving its databases that ingest and store billions of financial transaction records daily from Oracle to Amazon RDS and Amazon Aurora, leveraging AWS database technologies for capturing and storing a daily influx of more than 75 billion financial records. Steve Randich, EVP and Chief Information Officer, spoke onstage at re:Invent 2016.
