Kraken API Unlocked: ultra-low-latency trading on Kraken, from cloud to colocation
Kraken API Unlocked: ultra-low-latency trading on Kraken, from cloud to colocation

TL;DR: 

  • Every API trader on Kraken routes to the same spot and derivatives trading engines. What differs is the path and the latency.

  • Cloud connectivity is available to both individual and institutional traders. Hosted colocation, also available to both, is offered via a provider subscription. Direct colocation, a cross-connect to Kraken’s infrastructure, is available to institutional VIP clients only and requires specific qualifications.

  • For institutional traders, dedicated private network routes are also available between major global hubs.
