LOCAL PLATFORM

All of QuantConnect On Premise

Develop quant strategies On-Premise and in QuantConnect Cloud, getting the best of both environments. With Local Platform, you can harness your local version control, autocomplete, and coding tools with the full power of a scalable cloud at your finger tips.

Key Features

Run backtests, research notebooks, and live algorithms on both your local machine and QuantConnect Cloud. Enjoy the best of both worlds: your own hardware or our scalable cloud.

Hybrid Workflow

Sync local and cloud project files. Pull projects locally to use your own version control for tracking changes.

Version Control

Sync your local and cloud project files. You can use your own version control systems to track project changes.

Self-Sovereign Security

Own your project security. On the Institution tier, create local projects without pushing to QuantConnect Cloud.

Custom LEAN Images

Use custom LEAN images to add extensions or fixes, then run them through the Local Platform.

On-Premise Compute

Run backtests, optimizations, research notebooks, and live algorithms on a local computer or server.

Private Cloud

Build a private cloud cluster on your own hardware or provider. Scale the Local Platform to support multiple engineers on thin clients.

Private Cloud Add-On

The Private Cloud add-on to the Local Platform enables a cluster of centrally managed servers to run work tasks from a distributed team of users. This is much more efficient than each quant having a full copy of data or their own GPU resources on their individual computers.

Share access to centralized servers with expensive specialized hardware. Set up a powerful server with plenty of RAM, CPU, and GPU resources for your team to build and train the latest models.

Provide distributed teams with safe, monitored access to proprietary data. Centralizing data allows your team to access it without the potential for distribution.

Keep infrastructure costs low by reducing total hardware expenses and making better use of hardware.

User’s Own Hardware

We encourage a hybrid “cloud + local” workflow, so you can use right tool for each stage of your development process. With the Local Platform, you can create, debug, and run projects on premise while using your own on-site tools. With the Cloud Platform you can deploy backtests at scale and harness our massive data library at low cost.
