At the recent QA Financial Forum London, Mit Saru, senior director at STOXX, shared with delegates that he has been tasked with building a platform engineering capability from scratch for the Deutsche-Börse data and index subsidiary.
“A clean slate for strategic technology choices,” as he described it.
Saru led delegates through tooling and skills required to manage the new Cloud-based architecture at STOXX, including the metrics required for security, and site reliability.
His session included a special focus on chaos engineering, which he said: “Holds one key to meeting future engineering and testing requirements and, ultimately, improved reliability.”
Saru spoke last month at the London conference of the QA Financial Forum, a global series of conference and networking meetings for software risk managers, which took place on September 11, in the heart of the British capital.
The agenda was designed to meet the needs of software testers working for banks and other financial firms working in regulated, complex markets.
The full-day event, held at the America Square Conference Center in the heart of the City, brought together more than 100 expert speakers and delegates from leading firms including JP Morgan Chase, LSEG, STOXX, Nationwide, Lloyds Banking Group, HSBC and a range of others, who shared their insights and experience on topics such as networking testing, data management and the unstoppable rise of AI.
Also discussed were timely issues such as enterprise benchmarks for compliance, DORA and regulation, as well as green software, sustainability in testing and overall ESG principles in the QA space.
