Feed Handler, Consolidated Order Book, and Platform Services Production systems: Processor: AMD or Intel x86 architecture 32- or 64-bit or Sun UltraSPARC, containing two processors or cores of at least 2.5 GHz Minimum memory requirements: 3 GB * Minimum disk space requirements: 2 x 36 GB Dual 1 Gigabit or 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapters ** * On Solaris only, feed handlers for SIAC CTA and LSE Infolect require a minimum of 8 GB memory, and all other feed handlers require a minimum of 4 GB memory ** Most production feed handler environments require dual 1 Gigabit or 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapters for the redundant flow of incoming data. A 1 Gigabit or 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter or InfiniBand adapter is required for outgoing data. InfiniBand transport only available when using the embedded WebSphere MQ Low Latency Messaging multicast transport, on a supported Linux operating system with hardware supporting the OpenFabrics Enterprise Distribution (OFED) version 1.2 (or higher). Native InfiniBand and IP over InfiniBand are supported. _________________________ Authorized User and Application Connection packages: Processor: AMD or Intel x86 architecture 32- or 64-bit, or Sun UltraSPARC, or POWER One processor with a minimum processor speed of 2.0 GHz (dual processor or dual core recommended) Minimum memory requirements: 1 GB Minimum disk space requirements: 18 GB 1 Gigabit or 10 Gigabit Ethernet adapter or InfiniBand adapter InfiniBand transport only available when using the embedded WebSphere MQ Low Latency Messaging multicast transport, on a supported Linux operating system with hardware supporting the OpenFabrics Enterprise Distribution (OFED) version 1.2 (or higher). __________________________ Development Systems: The minimum hardware requirements for development systems are the same as for production systems. __________________________ Performance considerations: WebSphere Front Office for Financial Markets is a scalable product. Performance depends on the complexity of the specific environment, volume of data traffic, and the data object size. |
