Case Study: Barchart achieves reliable real-time futures trading with Proekspert

Barchart powers real-time trading for 1,000 clients with Proekspert

Barchart, a Chicago-based provider of financial market data, faced the challenge of developing a high-performance iOS trading app for professional futures traders. The app needed to process a massive, real-time data stream without crashing or draining device battery, as any failure could ruin the company's reputation. To meet this zero-tolerance requirement, Barchart turned to vendor Proekspert for iOS development and system architecture.

Proekspert's solution involved deeply learning the futures trading business to architect a custom system that could process 10,000 values per second. Through regular collaboration and sprint meetings, they built a highly responsive and reliable application. The successful app remains in active use by 1,000 Barchart clients, solidifying the partnership and earning Proekspert the client's highest marks in post-project evaluations.
