Solution

Delivering a kdb+ architecture framework

Version 1’s expert team worked closely with the customer to design and deliver a bespoke kdb+ architecture framework that allowed them to design a series of tasks that could be executed independently but is chained together to provide a solution that meets their user’s requirements.

The final solution leveraged AWS best-practice security features and was controllable via a standard REST API that integrated seamlessly with the customers existing UI framework and tools.

Real Differences...

...Delivered.

  • The customer can now build new logical solutions, such as loading a different datatype or defining a new visualization, by creating and deploying new tasks without the need to redefine the framework.
  • The customer now has a framework that scales on-demand – allowing them to manage costs efficiently.
  • The customer can perform a series of operations much quicker whilst utilising the same processing power – the overall time taken is dramatically reduced while time per task is constant.
