NovaTick can be deployed as a standalone PCIe card, which is installed in any trading server. Built on the same FPGA and memories architecture than the NovaTick appliance FPGA modules, the NovaTick PCIe card supports the same feeds and delivers a similar level of performance and functionalities. This PCIe card can reduce the total cost of ownership of the solution and is particularly interesting for deployments involving a small number of servers and/or a small number of feeds. NovaTick PCIe card is also the preferred hardware platform for any pure FPGA custom project or Tick-to-Trade project. It is the basic block of the NovaSparks open FPGA development platform, used for designing custom products such as Normalized format converters, ETF Calculators, Order Execution, Risk Checks, Bandwidth Shapers, etc.
