GFI Group Inc., an inter-dealer broker specialising in over-the-counter derivatives products and related securities, will implement TIBCO’s service-orientated architecture (SOA) and Ajax Rich Internet Applications (RIA) software.
The selection of TIBCO’s software was the result of an exhaustive evaluation process spanning several months and top SOA technology vendors.
“At GFI Group we were looking for a software vendor that could complement and align its technology with our existing Operational Service-Oriented Architecture (OSOA) platform,” says Brian Farrelly, European strategic projects director at GFI Group. “Additionally, we needed a company that could really understand and visualise the impact of the implementation on all parts of our organisation. TIBCO’s open, collaborative approach and ability to address unique business challenges, leveraging its rich history in financial services, made it the clear choice to support our long-term business requirements.”
