Migration eliminates system bottlenecks, reduces infrastructure costs by 30%, and strengthens customer trust
Hua Nan Securities, a leading financial services firm headquartered in Taipei, has reported a 35% improvement in trading system performance and a 30% reduction in infrastructure costs after migrating to Azul Platform Prime. The move has also eliminated persistent Out-of-Memory (OOM) issues that had been undermining the reliability of its trade return processing system.
The company’s platform, which manages up to 500,000 transaction records simultaneously across more than 20 microservices, plays a mission-critical role in order reporting. Performance bottlenecks and intermittent system crashes had previously affected trading efficiency and customer satisfaction, making optimization a strategic imperative.

“Azul Platform Prime helped us optimize the execution efficiency of customer securities order reporting and improve our ROI,” said Huang Sheng-Chun, vice president of IT at Hua Nan Securities. “With faster, more stable trade reporting, we were able to increase both operational efficiency and customer satisfaction and preserve our topline revenue.”
The deployment was supported by Galaxy Software Services Corporation (GSS), Azul’s regional channel partner in Taiwan, which provided architectural guidance, performance tuning, and technical expertise throughout the process.
According to Dean Vaughan, vice president of APAC at Azul, the success of Hua Nan Securities demonstrates the growing importance of Java optimization in the region’s financial sector. “This deployment showcases not only the performance and cost benefits of Azul Platform Prime for high-volume, latency-sensitive trading applications, but also the strength of our channel partner ecosystem. GSS’s technical expertise and deep market knowledge were instrumental in delivering this successful outcome.”
Azul, the only company 100% focused on Java, counts 36% of the Fortune 100 and 10 of the world’s top 10 banks among its customers. The Hua Nan Securities deployment highlights how financial services firms across Asia Pacific are leveraging Azul’s technology to drive trading speed, resilience, and cost efficiency.
