Scalable Day Trading Application
April 2023
Day-Trader is a scalable day trading application developed as part of UVic's Scalable Systems offering (SENG 468). It provides users with the ability to engage in day trading activities through a user-friendly GUI and a command-line interface (CLI).
The architecture of Day-Trader is designed for scalability and efficiency. It consists of various components such as the Web Browser, Next Server, CLI, Transaction Server, Database (Postgres), Quote Server Adaptor, and Uvic Quote Server. These components communicate with each other using gRPC calls and TCP sockets to handle user requests, update the database, and retrieve stock quotes.
This project included three students, with my primary contributions being to the frontend.
