Cboe One Options Disaster Recovery

Users of Cboe One Options who are interested in disaster recovery must maintain connectivity to the Cboe Disaster Recovery (DR) site in Chicago, IL. To establish new connectivity to the DR site, contact the Cboe NOC.

The Cboe One Options feed that is disseminated from the DR site takes the Cboe Multicast Top services sourced in the DR site for C1, C2, EDGX, and BZX Options. It serves the same data as is distributed from the Cboe One Primary site in Secaucus, NJ all day long, so Cboe One Options customers can fail-over to or utilize the Cboe One Options feed out of the DR site at any time. However, note that sequence numbers are not guaranteed to be the same between the Primary and DR sites.

The Cboe DR site is designed to support Cboe One Options inter data center resiliency in the following DR scenarios:

1. Hardware failure in the primary Cboe One Options system. Customers always have the option to switch to the DR site at will if they don't want to wait for remediation of failed hardware in the Primary data center to take place.
2. Failover of one or more of Cboe’s options platforms to their respective DR site. The Cboe One Options feed in the Primary site currently only connects to market data for Cboe One Options within the Primary site. If one of the exchanges fails over to the DR site, then the Cboe One Options feed out of Primary site will not be able to disseminate updates from that exchange’s market data feed in the DR site. In this scenario, customers should take the Cboe One Options feed out of the DR site to regain full coverage.
3. Loss of any of the Cboe One Options input feeds. Similar to scenario #2, if Cboe experiences a market data (Multicast Top) dissemination issue for any Cboe One Options exchange at the Primary site, but Multicast Top market data is valid for the problem exchange at the DR site, then Cboe One Options customers have the option to switch over to the DR Cboe One Options feed to regain full coverage.
