Server

Server is one of the most important system’s parts. All the data on current accounts, history of the trades, currently opened orders is stored on the server. Furthermore, the server processes the transactions. Taking these factors into consideration, Soft-FX developed Cluster Server, which increases system’s reliability and performance, eliminates system overload and reduce risks of failure.

As a result of Cluster Service operation, when clients connect to the system, the load is evenly distributed across servers. One of them is Master Server, the rest are Slaves Servers. Cluster Server is different from a regular one due to its architecture, through which it provides higher reliability of the entire system as a whole. In case of a server failure, the customers connected to the server failed, will be reallocated to another one. Thus, the system integrity remains, and the clients continue to trade securely.

Unified Backup with a wide range of data protection options ensures secure data retention. The system provides access to the history of quotes, accounts and transactions for the entire period of the server’s operation.
