Linux, macOS

Protocols

The system supports two different use cases

Low latency: shared memory communication with a proprietary ultra-fast messaging layer.
Easy integration: socket based communication and an open-source schema based messaging layer.

Shared Memory

Use when your concerns are latency, speed and accurate back-testing. Features

Lowest possible time to encode and decode messages.
Broadcast design to leverage hardware based distribution between CPU cores (cache coherence).
Option to busy-poll on shared memory to avoid relinquishing control (to the Linux kernel).
A very fast simulator for very accurate back-testing.

Constraints

You should be proficient with both C++ and Linux.
All components must run on the same host.
