Walleye Capital Enhances Cloud Connectivity and Infrastructure Resilience with Cologix OneConnect

Walleye Capital needed to expand its high-capacity connectivity to cloud providers to support increasingly demanding digital infrastructure requirements. The firm required 100G connectivity to efficiently access GPU resources while supporting application load balancing and disaster recovery readiness.

The solution needed to provide the capacity and resiliency required for these critical workloads while giving Walleye a flexible connectivity foundation capable of supporting evolving infrastructure needs and future growth.

Cologix worked closely with Walleye Capital to understand its connectivity requirements, infrastructure priorities and plans for continued growth. Through that collaboration, the teams identified software-defined interconnection as the right approach to provide the capacity, flexibility and resiliency Walleye required. The resulting solution centered on Cologix OneConnect, with redundant 100G exchange ports and 5G and 20G extended virtual cross connections at NNJ2.

To support the agreed-upon design, Cologix accelerated deployment of 100G switching infrastructure at its New Jersey facilities. The collaborative approach delivered a solution tailored to Walleye's immediate cloud connectivity requirements while establishing a flexible foundation to support evolving infrastructure needs.

The deployment gave Walleye Capital the high-capacity connectivity needed to reach cloud providers and support GPU access, application load balancing and disaster recovery requirements. The result is a foundation that supports Walleye Capital's growing cloud and compute needs while maintaining the resilience, flexibility and performance expected of an institutional investment platform.

For Cologix, the project demonstrated the value of flexibility, cross-functional execution and a trusted customer relationship when responding to complex infrastructure requirements. The engagement also reinforced the importance of clear communication and regular touchpoints as teams evaluated evolving connectivity, capacity and infrastructure needs. Hands-on support and close collaboration throughout the project helped ensure alignment with Walleye's requirements.
