Presentation: Patterns for scalability and availability in (trading) systems

Track: Case Studies / Time: Thursday 11:30 - 12:20 / Location: Margrethe

Michel will in this session walk through a number of useful nontraditional approaches and architectural patterns to building systems that combine high availability, high throughput and low latency. This covers approaches used in large scale trading systems where there are requirements to process hundreds of thousands of business events per second and reliably react to them whilst capturing and reacting to thousands of business transactions per second while maintain and distributing data to tens of thousands of concurrent users in an environment where milliseconds matter.
