Exchange and Broker Solutions from LTech India
AURUM is an Exchange and a Broker Solution Suite
The AURUM Exchange Platform Architecture is based on the concept of the Distributed Computing and the Event-driven Push Technology. A number of small-decoupled Components and Programs work all together in a cooperative and a Distributed Environment to deliver all the Business functionalities for all the Users, which is easily monitored and maintainable.
The availability of reliable volume produced servers and very competitive price performance ratios together with affordable large bandwidth networks enables development of high performance, cost effective real-time distributed trading systems. Smaller individual decoupled components enable the building of quality software systems at a fraction of effort and deployment time of traditional systems.
Software fault tolerance, with replica processes and duplicate machines gives the availability that an Exchange needs; Geographic immunity is given by having “hot” backup sites
The distributed computing architecture provides system level reliability unprecedented in traditional architectures. The premise is that business rules, business data, data distribution, load balancing, fault tolerance, and disaster recovery are all part of the general notion of service abstraction.
