Development Process
Having analyzed the Customer’s business canvas, as well as the application’s architecture, database and codebase, security-soft prepared a detailed list of existing bottlenecks and suggested the solutions.
List of Bottlenecks
- Confusing navigation patterns and outdated UI design.
- Low system performance and lack of scalability due to the outdated Classic ASP technology.
- Limited marketing and promotion capabilities due to the insufficient subscription module.
- Poor historical database structure.
- The nightly update routine, which processes customers’ alerts, was built as a set of JavaScript-based scripts executed by a Windows command interpreter and therefore had serious performance issues.
Solutions
- To enhance financial business intelligence capabilities, historical base storing stock data was extracted into a separate database, which accelerated information retrieval.
- The nightly update procedure was parallelized into 2 separate processes — historical data update and alerts generation — run on separate services for faster performance.
- Web services API was leveraged as a basis for new feature implementation.
- Nightly update routines were migrated to the .NET-compiled code as a Windows Service Application to improve their speed and stability.
Our team also modernized the stock monitoring app's UI, extended the subscription scenarios and set up a number of advertising campaigns and marketing activities. They also implemented data visualization features, such as Portfolio Charts.
Besides, security-soft implemented appealing financial data visualization and added new stock change markets, including London Stock Exchange, Toronto Stock Exchange, and some others.
RightWayTrader was genuinely satisfied with the results of collaboration and engaged security-soft for the next projects. security-soft has implemented FlexCharts — a desktop software for designing and publishing stock charts founded on online data, and ChartCrafters — an online service that provides stock related content and widgets for publishing on third-party websites
