Infomedia Modernizes Automotive Data Solutions with AWS Cloud-Native Architecture.

Infomedia, an automotive data provider, has modernized its on-premises solutions to cloud-native deployments on the AWS platform. With the AWS Modernization Experience-Based Acceleration (ModAx) program, Infomedia aimed to improve scalability, operational efficiency, growth opportunities, infrastructure optimization, and security for its automotive data services. The company worked with AWS and partners to achieve a scalable deployment, enhanced operational efficiencies, and improved security and resilience. Infomedia's Infodrive analytics tool now integrates with 43 different Dealership Management Systems, delivering 33,500 reports daily to over 8,000 dealerships worldwide.

Nasdaq and Amazon Web Services (AWS) have announced a groundbreaking modernization blueprint for global capital markets, introducing Nasdaq Eqlipse, a next-generation marketplace technology platform. The partnership aims to modernize market infrastructures while maintaining data sovereignty and resilience. The blueprint consists of three key components: a new infrastructure solution combining AWS, exchange, and trading participant systems in close proximity; the Nasdaq Eqlipse platform featuring cloud-ready applications and standardized APIs across the trade lifecycle; and a services deployment model leveraging both companies' expertise.

Initial adopters include Nasdaq's Nordic markets, the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE), and Mexico's Grupo BMV. The JSE will focus on colocation, data intelligence, and client interactions, while Grupo BMV is evaluating cloud infrastructure potential. Nasdaq's Nordic markets will begin implementation with their derivatives market in Väsby, Sweden. The Nasdaq-AWS partnership introduces cloud-based market infrastructure that enhances Nasdaq's technology business while solving critical latency and data sovereignty challenges.

The introduction of Nasdaq Eqlipse Intelligence, designed to unlock the full potential of market operators' data with cloud-based analytics and reporting capabilities, positions Nasdaq to help exchanges capitalize on the AI transformation potential in market operations, potentially creating new data monetization opportunities. The immediate implementation across Nasdaq's Nordic markets and expanded partnerships with the JSE and Grupo BMV demonstrate tangible market traction.

For the JSE, the collaboration will support their technology enablement journey, including colocation, data intelligence, and client interactions. For Grupo BMV, the focus extends to modernizing clearing and central securities depository platforms through the services deployment model. The blueprint plans to use AWS's global network to support frictionless connections between markets worldwide, potentially reducing barriers for cross-border investment and increasing liquidity flows to emerging markets.

The initiative requires regulatory approval, with implementations proceeding "in close consultation with respective regulatory authorities," highlighting the careful governance needed for critical market infrastructure transformation. Nasdaq and AWS announce modernization blueprint to drive the benefits of cloud into local market infrastructures through flexible deployment while maintaining data sovereignty and resilience.
