EEX operates European commodity exchanges for power, emissions allowances, and agricultural products as part of Deutsche Börse Group. The tech stack is heavily enterprise-oriented (SAP S/4HANA, SharePoint, PostgreSQL, Java/Spring Boot) with active migration to next-generation trading infrastructure and modernization of the data platform. Pain points cluster around compliance, high-availability infrastructure, and process digitalization — typical for a regulated financial market operator managing real-time trading volumes.
