A couple of topics to bring to your attention this week - let’s look at them.
Earlier this month, we successfully hosted the much-anticipated FINOS Open House and Member Meeting at the esteemed JP Morgan building, positioned on the scenic London Embankment.
The events brilliantly displayed the transformative power of open source technology in financial services and underlined the dynamism and impact of our expanding FINOS community. Over 400 attendees learned about FINOS' latest announcements and discussed new projects and collaborations - sparking enthusiasm about fresh areas of potential growth. We extend our deepest gratitude to our superb hosts and FINOS platinum members, J.P.Morgan, for their tremendous support and hospitality.
This year at FINOS we are focusing on one of FINOS' key existing projects: Open Source Readiness. This is FINOS' term for helping the finance industry "do open source properly".
In the FINOS members only meeting's OSR roundtable, key stakeholders from various roles within the organization came together to address the growing significance of open source software (OSS).
The attendees included Open Source Program Office (OSPO) representatives, Solution Architects, Consultants, Product Owners and more. The CIO, CTO, Learning/HR, and Internal Audit departments each shared their perspectives and concerns, providing valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities associated with OSS adoption.
In today's digital landscape, collaboration and innovation go hand in hand. The power of open source projects lies in the collective efforts of multiple companies working towards a common goal.
Scott Logic has had the privilege of participating in the open source FDC3 (Financial Desktop Connectivity and Collaboration Consortium) project. Our team of consultants worked alongside prominent organizations like FINOS, Tick42, Finsemble, OpenFin, Connectifi,and products such as FDC3 Sail.
In this post, I would like to share the technology behind our team’s work in writing unit tests for FDC3 versions 1.2 and 2.0.
