Paremus, QuIC Deliver Distributed Analytics Solution


Paremus, developer of the distributed OSGi and SCA-based Infiniflow service platform, and QuIC Financial Technologies Inc., a global solutions provider of risk management, pricing and financial analytics solutions, announced a combined offering that provides financial customers with a standards-based, highly scalable and resilient distributed services platform for analytics solutions including complex portfolio simulation, instrument pricing and modeling. Paremus' Infiniflow Enterprise Service Grid (ESG) has been integrated with the QuIC Product Suite to provide an exceptionally fast grid distribution solution.

Infiniflow ESG is part of the Infiniflow Enterprise Service Fabric suite of products from Paremus, and provides a robust, autonomic, standards-based, lightweight, service grid solution capable of supporting the simplest application to the most sophisticated business service.

The QuIC Engine, which is at the core of the QuIC Product Suite, provides market-leading speed, flexibility and scalability. Designed to scale up or down while running on a range of configurations from a single laptop to large-scale distributed environments incorporating multi-CPU servers and blade clusters, the integrated QuIC-Infiniflow solution runs on most operating systems.

"QuIC's customers demand a service environment that can dynamically and transparently adapt to changes in the computational demands of the QuIC Engine," said Mike Francis, sales and marketing director for Paremus. "Infiniflow ESG meets that challenge while delivering unparalleled resilience for mission-critical applications."

Infiniflow ESG boasts a truly distributed, dynamic architecture, making it easy to deploy, distribute and manage QuIC engines across commodity hardware and utility datacenter infrastructures. Infiniflow's autonomic capabilities allow the grid to assemble, heal, scale, manage and audit itself without operator intervention, resulting in an agile grid solution with no single point of failure.

"A number of QuIC's customers are already enjoying enhanced application availability and performance benefits due to the Infiniflow service platform," said Justin Forrest, Vice President, Business Development at QuIC. "By creating this integrated QuIC-Infiniflow solution we have enhanced our offering of a shared calculation fabric, which can be leveraged throughout an enterprise."

The Infiniflow Enterprise Service Fabric transparently supports business applications that are OSGi and SCA compliant, and Infiniflow is itself, built from the ground-up leveraging these important industry standards. Defined by the OSGi Alliance, OSGi defines a dynamic, re-useable component framework that is being adopted by all of the leading Application Server vendors, and used by Spring and  the Eclipse IDE. SCA is a protocol and language independent wire-up description, part of OASIS and backed by most of the leading IT software vendors.

"OSGi and SCA are about to fundamentally reshape the enterprise application server, ESB and grid compute landscapes," said Richard Nicholson, CEO and founder of Paremus. "Our relationship with QuIC is one of many commercial relationships based on OSGi and SCA technology that we'll be announcing in the coming months, enabling the delivery of the next generation of composite business solutions running as SaaS components on the Infiniflow distributed runtime platform."

The integrated QuIC-Infiniflow solution is available now.

The advent of cloud computing has drastically affected the product offerings and solutions by grid computing veterans. Everything is about flexibility, mobility, virtualization and, overall, being on-demand. However, after seeing how quickly a nebulous term can lose favor among the user community, vendors are betting on the delivery model but not necessarily the terminology.

The Grid-Cloud Connection (Pt. I): Compare and Contrast

Burned to some degree by the confusion surrounding grid computing, many vendors have drastically cut the term from their marketing strategies. As a result, these vendors are not so quick to latch onto cloud computing. However, many of their new directions could easily fall under the cloud umbrella, and those in the know readily acknowledge that grid technologies underlie the cloud. So, what's a middleware vendor to do? How can a user tell the difference?

Network-Attached Memory: Virtualization for Java Environments

Network-attached memory is analogous to network-attached storage (NAS) in that it provides a service to thousands of connected clients transparently. As NAS is transparent underneath the file system, network-attached memory is transparent underneath the Java language. But in Terracotta's network-attached memory pool, everything can be massively scaled out.
