CME Globex Migration to Google Cloud - Q4 2026

Listed Derivative markets on the CME Globex platform are migrating to Google Cloud’s Ultra Low Latency (ULL) Solution to deliver a more flexible, scalable, and resilient trading ecosystem for clients. By combining Google Cloud’s ULL infrastructure with industry-leading Globex execution capabilities, this transition will unlock expanded co-location options, real-time data analytics, and enhanced operational efficiency to better support your needs.

To provide clients with a real-world production environment on Google Cloud prior to the Chicago region launch, Livestock futures and options will migrate to a new Production-Dallas environment in the private zones of the Dallas region in Q4 2026. In the second half of 2028, Livestock futures and options will migrate to the Production-Chicago environment, in the private Google Cloud Chicago region.

To support market access and the Dual Zones Solution, CME Group offers new discovery services via REST API for easing client network connectivity management.

Clients can use this REST API endpoint to programmatically retrieve IP address configurations for MDP channels, MSGW, and Drop Copy gateways in the Sandbox environment. The CME Globex Discovery Service - Zone Schedule API is also available, to determine which zone is currently Active and when the next zone swap is scheduled to occur.

Information on compute pricing for U4C Bare Metal and U4S Virtual Machine instances is available now from Google Cloud’s Account Teams.
