London Stock Exchange extends with AWS

London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) has extended its multi-year relationship with Amazon Web Services (AWS), announcing the hyperscaler as its preferred cloud provider for its Markets, Risk Intelligence, and FTSE Russell divisions.

As a global market infrastructure and data provider, resilience and security sit at the heart of LSEG’s operations. Cloud is central to ensuring the delivery of its services to customers, not least around providing safe and reliable access for those in the demanding areas of trading and risk management.

LSEG is also using both AWS Outposts (a managed service for hybrid cloud environments) and Amazon Bedrock (a managed service for accessing GenAI foundation models). The latter is being used in LSEG’s Risk Intelligence division for faster and more accurate risk analysis.

For its latest financial year (FY24), AWS broke through the $100bn revenue barrier. It remains the largest hyperscaler both globally and in the UK.
