Most agree that most of the effort to date to reduce the latency of trading systems has been focused on the 'easy' areas - lowering propagation latency, speeding up network stacks, using faster processors. The 'hard' part - tackling application design - is yet to come, and parallelisation of business logic - aka concurrency - is the key to it. Technologists at SunGard have been working on making it easier to build low-latency and high-throughput concurrent applications as part of the Stealers initiative. Low-Latency.com spoke to SunGard's Aditya Yadav to find out more.
