After the bank’s careful investigation, the choice was clear: Only MarkLogic could address all its concerns with additional benefits of improved performance, scalability, faster time-to-market, and a much lower total cost of ownership (TCO). It built a derivatives trade store based on MarkLogic, replacing 20 disparate batch-processing servers with a single operational trade store. This single MarkLogic Operational Trade Store seamlessly supports critical settlements and related processes, ad-hoc queries across all trades from hundreds of users across the bank, large reports, and end-of-day analyses.
