A holistic solution aimed for calculating Risk Key Figures - for example indicator how risky some financial instrument is for client to purchase. Our work goes from the database through backend service to the UI.
What are the key technologies used in this project?
.NET 4.5 with C#, but when possible we'll migrate to 4.6. We use heavily Dependency Injection (Castle Windsor), have Entity Framework for our DB and Telerik for out UI. With new projects we invest in HTML 5 investigating TypeScript as a UI language and WebApi for communication. For integration with other systems we rely on (but not only) message queues. Automated testing is based on nUnit and SpecFlow.
- What are the advantages which this project gives to specialists who are working on it?
First of all, great collaboration with business. The agile process we have is very tightly coupled with users and their feedback. So learning business knowledge is mandatory in our case. A new member can as well learn technologies used in huge financial institutions and methods for complex risk calculations. We also always encourage contribution and ideas, so you can see your input doing important part of production work. And there are some pretty experienced people on board ready to share knowledge.
- What is Delivery Process?
a. Before any changes are pushed to production they have to pass QA (both automated and manual). Then the code might be forwarded to staging environment when business signs-off new features. Of course if some bugs are found we reiterate. Only good code goes to production. We aim to release often to minimize risk of huge changes.
- How does this project work and how does it support our business?
a. We work at fast paced environment where new business requirements seem to emerge almost constantly. The project is crucial from the regulatory perspective. It provides vital information about risk that has to be presented to every client. So we use agile process to adapt quickly and provide value to our consumers.
