FREE EVENT: QCon in Finance eXchange: Brian Oliver on Patterns for managing Order Books and Reference Data on a Global Basis (with Oracle Coherence)
Patterns for managing Order Books and Reference Data on a Global Basis (with Oracle Coherence)
In this presentation, Brian Oliver examines some of the common architectural challenges faced when attempting to manage order books and reference data on a global basis and how globally spanning federated clusters (using Oracle Coherence) provides a novel and close-to-realtime solution for a Tier 1 investment bank.
Review:
Brian Oliver, a Senior Principle Solutions Architect at Oracle, explains his experience managing order books and reference data on a global basis, and how Oracle Coherence made it possible for a Tier 1 investment bank to do so. Having observed about 150 architectures over the past few years, he talks about some of the common challenges faced and common mistakes made by development teams and architects.
These challenges include managing globally distributed clusters containing fragmented order books and reference data, and keeping disaster recovery sites synchronised and active in real-time. Oracle Coherence provides a solution to these problems without the need for additional infrastructure. It combines data locality with local processing power to perform real-time data analysis, in-memory grid computations, and parallel transaction and event processing. Another example for big challenges is the multi-way transactional log shipping problem. Messaging platforms bring concurrency issues with them.
Data grids are data management systems that shift application state across many servers and perform load balancing. They are used for automatically and dynamically partitioning data in memory on these servers. In some cases ,there need to be multiple synchronized data grids, where transactional integrity must be maintained.
In conclusion, it is not necessarily easy to implement Oracle Coherence in global applications, however it certainly solves many synchronisation problems faced in global applications.
