Taiwan’s financial services company, Hua Nan Securities, has upgraded and optimised Java-based trading system to enhance business operations and customer satisfaction.
The company’s trade return processing system handles up to 500,000 transaction records at once using over 20 supported microservices.
It was struggling with performance bottlenecks during peak trading hours.
The company has achieved a 35 percent improvement in trading system performance after migrating to Azul Platform Prime, a Java platform distribution by Azul Systems built on OpenJDK.
The deployment also reduced infrastructure costs by 30 percent and resolved persistent Out-of-Memory (OOM) issues.
Earlier, OOM issues led to reduced system reliability, slowing order reporting and impacting revenue-critical trading operations.
Hua Nan Securities’ vice president, IT department, Huang, Sheng-Chun, said, Azul Platform Prime helped optimise the execution efficiency of customer securities order reporting and improve ROI.
With faster, stable trade reporting, the company is able to increase operational efficiency and customer satisfaction and preserve topline revenue, Sheng-Chun added.
The migration to Azul Platform Prime was facilitated by Galaxy Software Services Corporation (GSS), Azul’s regional channel partner in Taiwan.
GSS provided architectural guidance, performance tuning, and hands-on technical support throughout the evaluation and deployment process.
The speed of order reporting directly impacts trading efficiency and customer satisfaction.
Since both factors influence revenue, addressing these critical system performance issues was a strategic imperative for the business.
