Code Willing has launched the CWIQ platform to help quant hedge funds streamline data analysis workflows for model development, simulation, and backtesting, allowing research teams to focus on data science, feature engineering, and alpha generation.

At the heart of this platform is CWIQ FS, a patented file system offering enterprise-level HPC scalability, simplified storage orchestration, and optimised performance, ideal for systematic trading and data science applications. By managing vast datasets across hybrid multi-cloud environments, CWIQ FS provides real-time metadata updates and integrates with object stores like S3, ensuring consistent and up-to-date views of firm data across locations.

"We designed the CWIQ Suite to avoid the complexity of unpredictable billing models while still offering cutting-edge performance," said Rob Martinez, CRO of Code Willing, in a press statement. "With per-user cost controls, our solution enables teams to forecast usage, eliminating end-of-month surprises and giving firms full control over cloud spending down to the penny."
