• Redis job queue
• Django_rq workers
• Memcached for caching
• Mysql DB

Golang(Current version)

Development

In order to use the current version(golang) you need to docker-compose up in several different directories:

1. in frontend docker-compose up
2. in golang/day_trader docker-compose up
3. in golang/logging docker-compose up
4. in quote_server docker-compose up

Generator

To run the generator you must have completed the previous development step.

1. in golang/workload_generator docker-compose up
2. The workload file can be changed to simulate different user workloads

Quote server

To run the quote server, cd quote_server and run docker-compose up

Testing

Golang

To test the golang app, cd golang/day_trader/test_infrastructure then run docker-compose up

Note - Since this uses a real db and cache, you must docker-compose down every time you want to retest
