Mitigate operational risk with RA Hub’s resilient architecture and process design. Message persistence is ensured through High Availability configuration, while virtual mode, automated testing and version control functions minimise production errors.

Reduced Cost of Ownership

Easy-to-use tools accelerate time to market and remove the need for scarce developer resource to implement changes. Flexible deployment options and optimised message handling drive infrastructure efficiencies. Whether renewing or enhancing trading platforms, RA Hub delivers significant efficiencies and reduced cost of ownership.
