Our Solace-native trading platform architecture

We at 28Stone have built multiple electronic trading systems and marketplaces for our clients over the span of our company history. We have seen what works and what doesn’t, we’ve fine-tuned patterns and practices to maximize impact and productivity and have gained valuable insights on architecture of such systems. Over the years we’ve incrementally modernized our designs, honed our techniques and incorporated newer technologies and tools. In our whitepaper, we describe the 28Stone sample reference trading platform architecture and elaborate on how the use of the Solace PubSub+ platform has tremendously aided us.

In this paper, you will learn about:

• 28Stone’s electronic trading system architecture guidelines
• How 28Stone leverages the Solace PubSub+ platform to meet the architecture guidelines
• The ability for the reference architecture to scale
• How architecture tiers are isolated and where boundaries are drawn
• The inbuilt support in the architecture to support global, multi-datacenter deployment
• Messaging patterns for stateless and stateful services
• Failover, high availability and recovery mechanisms
• Managing message flows and information security
• Architecting for fully event-driven platforms

Building trading platforms can be easy but building a performant, robust, scalable and flexible one is exceeding difficult. 28Stone has benefited tremendously from using Solace – reduced our time to market, enhanced developer productivity, achieved superior system performance, resiliency and global scaling. The 28Stone reference architecture and patterns have been battle hardened over several live deployments and has been proven to be flexible to adapt to new asset classes and trading modalities.
