PTMS: Post-Trade Management System

The objective of this project was to capture intra-day trading activity from various FIX CLIENT(s) logs, persist them on the data-stores and generate web-based user interfaces to query trade data into several levels. CLIENT agent capture FIX message logs, and pass it to MULTI-THREADED JAVA SERVER, where FIX PARSER parses those messages, merge it with the market data and stores them into the data-store built using SYBASE ASE. At the end of each trading day, the trade data of the given day uploads to the historical data-store for maintaining the historical data archives. Those archive further utilized in development of web interface for querying and reporting/charting the trade data. The system was developed using JAVA/J2EE/WEBLOGIC technologies at the Server-end, combination of JAVA and PERL programming language at the Client-end and SYBASE ASE as back end DATABASE.

Roles and Responsibilities:

• Design, coding and testing the FIX Parser module which is the core component of the project

• Parsed through FIX messages to obtain necessary information and performed file and data integrity checks using various scripts

• Using JDBC to connect to SYBASE DATABASE.

• Created Stored procedures, Triggers and created Indexes for performance on Sybase tables

• Used BCP and format files to upload files to Sybase DATABASE, generated dumps for further use in history archive

• Wrote JAVA SERVLETs and made it interact with SYBASE DATABASE on Sybase tables

• Developed web interfaces to extract information from Historical DATABASE by Portfolio managers to manage and develop portfolios.

• Developed web interfaces for Query tools, reporting/charting DATABASE data using JCHARTs and generating spreadsheets using JEXCEL.

• Configured JAVA SERVLET based web application interfaces on WEBLOGIC application server for the traders to search past trading records effortlessly.

• Created Monitoring scripts and Report generating scripts to monitor Autosys jobs and generate reports at the end of the day

• Performance tuning database indexes, stored procedures, user-defined functions, and views.

• Stored procedure optimization.

Environment:

JAVA, JEE, PERL SCRIPTs, UNIX, SHELL SCRIPTs, WEBLOGIC, SYBASE, T-SQL, HIBERNATE

TFMS: Trade Floor Monitoring System

The goal of this project was to build a trade floor monitoring system across numerous residual FIX TRADING ENGINE Client(s). It monitors the client’s system behavior and reports those statistics to the server in periodic intervals. The monitoring items includes but not limited to, connectivity between buy-side & sell-side FIX CLIENT(s) by utilizing heart-beating process between different fix engines, processes and services for processes, physical hardware monitoring such as process usage and machine load averages, file mount point checks, data and file integrity checks etc. The system was developed using JAVA technologies at the Server-end and PERL programming language at the Client-end.

Roles and Responsibilities:

• Wrote several UNIX SHELL/PERL Scripts for file retrievals, checks, archival and data movements

• Developed several UNIX SHELL/PERL Scripts for system and physical hardware monitoring

• Debugged and trouble shoot various UNIX SHELL/PERL scripts

• Created scripts for system testing in PERL

• Wrote MULTI-THREADED JAVA Server that entertain residual FIX CLIENTS

• Developed JAVA front End Application using JFC/Swing for SYSTEM ADMIN and wrote numerous classes and utilized many JAVA Collections to handle Data Extracts

• Developed many file watcher and directory watcher tasks that notifies concerned departments or groups about the issues

Environment:

JAVA, PERL SCRIPTs, UNIX, SHELL SCRIPTs, FIX PROTOCOL

HMS: Health-care Management System

The aim of this project was to build a health-care management system for a hospital to maintain the day-to-day state of admission/discharge of Patients, schedule the of Doctors (Consultants) check-ups routines, prescriptions of drugs and Billing etc. The system keeps records of admission of patient, scheduling the appointments as well as the system keep details about the consultants, their Prescriptions and treatments, surgery reports etc. The system was developed using the combination of JAVA/ J2EE /WEBLOGIC technologies at the Front and Server-end and SYBASE ASE as back end DATABASE.

Roles and Responsibilities:

• Developed JEE based Front-end for Query Tools, data storage, extraction and representing the data

• Wrote JAVA SERVLET to provide JDBC connection to database, user authentication and data representing

• Configured web application interfaces on WEBLOGIC application server

• Wrote several T-SQL queries, Triggers and Stored Procedures

• Test, Debugged and trouble shoot various JAVA Classes

Environment:

JAVA, PERL SCRIPTs, SYBASE, T-SQL, SERVLET, JSP, JAVA Beans, WEBLOGIC, STRUTS, HIBERNATE
