Beta testers

Imported from previous forum

Hi,

We are looking for beta testers of our new engine for FIX 4.2. We are also looking for other FIX Engine vendors to participate in performance tests.

Some specifications of our engine:

  • It is 100% Java and completely object oriented.
  • It is easily connected with electronic exchanges.
  • It features a unique Java message wrapper model.
  • Message construction is simple and allows little room for errors. A field is associated with its name and data type, and not primarily with its tag number.
  • The handling of repeating groups is correct and elegant. Repeating groups are treated as “sub messages” with their own required and defined fields.
  • There is a powerful tool for checking the correctness of FIX messages before they are sent. Using the tool, it is virtually impossible to
    construct invalid messages.
  • Session Level handling is completely encapsulated, allowing users to concentrate on implementation.
  • Session Level handling may be customised. The engine may be used either as a communication layer or as an integral part of a trading solution.
