Development of an AI-powered exchange platform (III)

Abstract

This project focused on delivering an AI-powered exchange platform where investors can make investments, manage their assets and view their portfolio details. This application serves as an aggregator for the user’s accounts across various trading platforms and allows them to manage all their assets using a single interface with their platform data centralised.

Our application has adopted a microservice architecture, consisting of our Portfolio Management System (PMS), Order Management System (OMS), Execution Management System (EMS).

Key technologies used are Typescript & React for the frontend, and Kotlin, SpringBoot and MongoDB as our backend. ZeroMQ was used as a message queue to communicate between our microservices. Additionally, our project was integrated with Docker to allow for containerisation. Project management tools such as Trello, Plane and Github were also extensively utilised to track and document our progress.

Since this project was developed concurrently with 5 other FYP students and 4 Masters students, and is a continuation from a previous batch of FYP and masters students, this report will review the existing state of the application we inherited and showcase the improvements or new features that were introduced. Furthermore, this report will highlight the author’s specific contributions and development work to the overall project.
