A single platform to harness any compute infrastructure (on-prem, hybrid or multi-cloud), compatible with legacy code and any operating system.
The most complete compute provisioning and job scheduling software for Financial Services Industry (FSI) customers.
Use Cases
YellowDog’s easy to use platform and rapid onboarding means you can concentrate on performing tasks which are core to your business, rather than building infrastructure.
Backtesting
Perform large-scale simulations to evaluate trading strategies and investment theses against large quantities of historical market data on price, volatility and market movements to find alpha-generating strategies.
Risk Reduction
External regulatory and internal risk assessments (FRTB, VAR, XVA) require large amounts of compute to power calculations on variables such as volatility, price movements and liquidity.
Post-trade Analytics
Assessing a broad range of portfolio and investment performance data to highlight where trading strategies have succeeded or under-performed and optimise them for future investments.
Benefits
YellowDog helps you achieve optimal use of your compute – on-premise, any cloud, any region – based on your workload requirements and preferences.
Migrate Legacy
Utilise your existing codebase, operating systems (Windows or Linux) and compute provider, with no development or refactoring. Capable of running workloads across multi-cloud and on-premise, simultaneously. API and SDK ready.
Highly Scalable
Provision across multiple regions, data centers and cloud providers to create hyperscale compute clusters (and shut down again) in minutes, with millions of cores if required.
Complete Reliability
Rapidly responds to instance failures or outages with automatic resource management. Ensuring workload completion, even on spot instances, by automatically switching providers or geographies if a job is interrupted.
FSI workloads can be highly variable, with computational demands regularly fluctuating by up to 10x instantaneously, and amounting to more than 100 million tasks per day.
Many existing workload managers, particularly legacy schedulers, are simply not designed for coping with this degree of volatility, being more used to orchestrating a highly controlled, finite number of compute cores, such as in on-premise installations.
Over time, this mismatch of supply and demand results in poor utilisation of cloud resources, leading to unexpectedly higher compute costs and/or failed workload completion within desired timelines.
YellowDog has been specifically designed for FSI needs, able to support high numbers of concurrent tasks with very short (< 1 second) runtime, and able to scale to very large cluster sizes x-Cloud Provider, capable of comfortably scaling to 3.2m vCPUs in minutes, and delivering throughput at 3000 tasks/s.
Realtime scheduling (40ms overhead)
High throughput (3,000 tasks per second)
Massive scale (3.2 million vCPUs)
Security
YellowDog’s security by design approach encompasses a pull-based architecture, secure credential storage and robust access control features, reflecting our dedication to ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our platform and your data.
ISO 27001 Certified.
Pull-based Architecture
Secure and efficient communication between compute node and our platform achieved using an HTTPS channel to guarantee data integrity and confidentiality whilst the pull-based architecture reduces lengthy security signoffs.
Cloud Credential Storage
Robust keyrings securely store sensitive credentials and utilise AES-256 encryption to safeguard against unauthorised access. Keyring access can be controlled and shared with account members through fine grained control.
Granular Access Control
Rights-based access control across projects within from within a single organisation account. Enables customers to maintain a secure and compliant environment, safeguarding sensitive data and IP.
