We were tasked with building a trading engine from scratch , one that would be flexible enough for the complex precious metals trading flows and allow for high automation & observability.
The approach / solution

I have been a client of Naissus technologies for over ten years. In my 30+ years of developing software systems, I have not encountered a more talented or professional outfit. They are a pleasure to work with. The designs are insightful. Their implementation is clean and elegant. When deadlines come, they are willing to put in the extra to hit them. If some emergency comes up, they are on the phone @ 2:00 AM in the morning helping to solve it. I could not ask for a better vendor and I doubt you could find one better. I strongly recommend. If you have any questions or would like to discuss this reference in more detail, please feel free to contact me. Peter Custer CTO @ GBI
