ATrad is a name synonymous with stock trading and brokering in Sri Lanka, crafted as an online tool by IronOne Technologies to meet the online investing requirements of the Colombo Stock Exchange. Being the flagship product of IronOne Technologies, ATrad has been the trusted online investment partner for 20+ Stock Brokers in the Colombo Stock Exchange and they have been in the market for the last 17 years.

In a testament to their commitment to uplifting Sri Lanka's capital market through innovative technology, IronOne Technologies recently achieved a historic milestone by launching ATrad on AWS Cloud facilitated by Millennium IT ESP , making it Sri Lanka's first internationally cloud-hosted stock trading and brokering platform.

Millennium IT ESP, IronOne Technologies' trusted partner, enabled ATrad's cloud migration, marking a significant leap towards aligning Sri Lanka's stock market with global standards. This landmark partnership underscores Millennium IT ESP's proven expertise in Cloud Services among an array of services. MIT ESP is also an AWS Well-Architected Partner and the the only AWS Advanced Tier Services Partner in Sri Lanka, with a strong team of certified and trained technical individuals, with proven customer experience.

"Migrating to Amazon Cloud Services (AWS) marks a significant milestone for users of ATrad in the Sri Lankan capital market due to a number of reasons," says Indika Wasala, Director - Cloud Technology at Millennium IT ESP. "As opposed to hosting ATrad on in-house servers, AWS Cloud offers a long list of benefits, featuring scalability, enhanced performance, enhanced security, and cost efficiency at the top."

"Perhaps the most significant benefit that AWS Cloud offers to ATrad users is low latency networking. AWS is globally renowned for its low latency with high reliability and resilience when it comes to Stock Trading Systems. In financial markets, the speed of trade execution is critical for the success of trading strategies and overall profitability hence, it will enable users to access real-time market data fast enough to make informed decisions quickly and effectively respond to rapidly changing market conditions" says Charith Sankalpa, Associate Director Product & Delivery at IronOne Technologies.
