Case Study: ICICI Securities achieves high-performance online trading with Progress Software

ICICI Securities - Customer Case Study

ICICI Securities, the retail brokerage arm of ICICI Bank, needed to build an online trading platform that could support rapid growth in transaction volume and connect its Unix-based trading systems with a Windows-based SQL Server settlement module. The challenge was to achieve real-time, high-volume processing while bridging incompatible platforms. Progress Software helped ICICI Securities with DataDirect Connect for ODBC drivers to enable that connectivity.

Using Progress Software’s DataDirect Connect for ODBC, ICICI Securities quickly connected its trading application to SQL Server in just one or two days without issues. The solution delivered fast, reliable connectivity and supported ICICIdirect.com’s scale, helping the platform process about 500,000 online transactions per day and provide smooth, problem-free operations.
