After Sun its Oracle turn to try out novel development using Java.

Oracle is focusing on building a Java-based pre-engineered trading bundle this year in order to facilitate fast deployment and “fewer moving parts” to deal with for its customers. This development is aimed at tackling the challenge of performance versus time to market in the low latency trading architecture space. It would be based on Java enabled data grids and architectures on which trading infrastructures can be built could therefore provide more robust capabilities.

We will find our more about core Java-based pre-engineered trading bundle within months to come. Will be easier to implement and will it save time and money for both the software company/consultants and the users (Trading firms and its Customers, Capital Markets & Investment Banks).???

Java is HOT again!

Secondary liquidity is critical to driving a fast moving enterprise’s growth. There are many Secondary Private Markets or Marketplace for Alternative Investments that provide liquidity if needed by offering secondary placement, to name a few are GATE Technologies, SecondMarket, SharesPost, Xpert Financial, MissionMarkets, NYPPEX etc. These so called Secondary Private Markets or Second Markets suffer from lack of a centralized marketplace or electronic access, making it difficult for participants to buy or sell alternative assets from Central location or well structured. With plenty of  Alternative Asset Classes (Private Stock Placement, Structured Products, Bankruptcy Claims, Foreclosure, Environmental Credits, Credit Card Debt, Public Equity) and lack of electronic market data and content to pre trade and post trade analytics it will be difficult for buyer or seller to judge the products strength or weakness. If you visit their websites most of these market places are registered with or member of  FINRA, MSRB and SIPC.

Will these Secondary Marketplace  (Second Markets) succeed or end up as a wholesale auction site for Alternative Assets Class like ebay is for goods?  Which company do you think has edge over the other and why? Do you think any of them can successfully navigate and aggregate transaction data and work more as a neutral interdealer broker in this space like  iCAP has done with the debt and equity markets and BondDesk has done with odd lot fixed income.
