Eurex Clearing FIXML Interface
The Eurex Clearing FIXML Interface, new with Eurex Release 14.0, reduces the costs associated
with accessing Eurex Clearing, while simultaneously offering members greater flexibility and
standardization in terms of technology. The interface is based on the industry standard FIXML.
It is easy to integrate into members' existing IT infrastructures and requires no special
programming efforts. Moreover, in combination with other of our optional interfaces, it will
make the MISS infrastructure obsolete.
The implementation of the new clearing interface uses an incremental development methodology that
allows earlier delivery of the new features to members. Individual features will be released
to members over an extended period of time to smoothen the migration process. A variety of
features will be introduced step-wise in mid-October 2011, the end of November 2011 and
January 2012.
First, each feature will be introduced in the simulation environment. Pending successful
introduction, features will be subsequently introduced into the production environment.

| Introduction to Eurex Clearing FIXML Interface | Eurex expert: Robert-Jan Groenouwe, Clearing System Design Language: English Content: The new FIXML-based clearing interface offers the same standard of connectivity
as the legacy VALUES API infrastructure but provides distinct advantages. Focus of this screencast is
to introduce you to the functional aspects of the new connection opportunity. Our expert walks you
through a workflow example to give you an insight in how the FIXML Clearing interface works but also
introduces you to its scope and the opportunities the new software provides.

| Eurex Clearing FIXML Interface and AMQP | Eurex expert: Jörg Heroth, Head of Section, Cash & Derivatives IT Language: English Content: Our new Eurex Clearing FIXML Interface uses the Advanced Message Queuing
Protocol (AMQP) as the transport layer for delivering messages. The open standard offers diverse
benefits: AMQP can be used royalty free and allows users to choose the platform and programming
language. In this screencast we provide you with the basics of AMQP and some details on the
relevant topics, such as reliable messaging, disaster tolerance and its specific security concept.
