Transformative,
scalable and resilient
solutions for the
FinTech and
Blockchain space

Work with engineers with previous experience in the development of massively scalable systems. This will ensure the correct decisions are made in choosing partitioning, sharding and replica parameters.

The need for engineering highly scalable and distributed systems has grown, and this is what we do every day. Our distributed systems cater to billions of users and transactions on a daily basis and are resilient against node crashes or bad actors, and exclude single points of failure.

Find a team with experience in growing automated network traffic management and dynamic topologies. Monitoring capacity and expertise need to be embedded to allow adaptation to changing scenarios and to identify problems before they occur (preemptive adaptation).

You must ensure that back-pressure control protects the system’s capacity against overloads and increases robustness. These modern approaches are valid for centralised, decentralised and distributed peer-to-peer (p2p) networks and are often associated with bespoke service discovery mechanisms.

Potential security threats and the sensitivity of data should be of the utmost importance to any FinTech working with blockchain. The right expertise is required to monitor your system and repair mechanisms. Dedicated secure p2p protocols, static analysis and property-based testing are techniques for system security. Information validation is used to protect against the man in the middle (MitM) attacks. Back pressure mechanisms protect against distributed denial of service attacks (DDOS).

Both symmetrical and asymmetrical encryptions are used to achieve the highest level of security possible. It’s also worth checking on hardware security ensuring that sensitive private keys are only accessible via hardware security modules (HSM).

Integrating applications on top of complex backends or replacing existing legacy systems, as well as providing synchronous and asynchronous interfaces among backends, is a serious job. So it’s worth checking if your team use frontend facing APIs such as REST and Websocket to implement responsive applications. They should comply with industry standards for compatibility and security to drive message exchanges on top of a variety of AMQP and JMS queuing mechanisms.

We can provide guidance to plan effective and reliable integration tests, ensuring the compliance of data validation and communication protocols is preserved throughout the development process.

Engage with true polyglots! We’re a team of engineers who specialise in one tech and are highly competent in all other popular languages in the industry – Java/Scala, JS, C/C++, Python, Rust and Go. Expertise in language interpretation and virtual machines has proven to be critical know-how in a variety of modern blockchain solutions.

When contributing to projects in any of these languages, we can guide development by introducing design patterns coming from functional programming such as the actor model.
