  • Next.js

    The React Framework

  • The backend consists of the Finex trading engine, which performs order matching at lightning speeds, and smart contracts that take care of the user fund deposits and withdrawals. The front end and back end are tied together through Next.js, a full-stack react framework where you can create your APIs, pages, and endpoints, giving you complete control over the customization of your exchange.

  • kubernetes

    Production-Grade Container Scheduling and Management

  • Docker is a DevOps containerization service that separates your code from the infrastructure it depends on. Docker is often coupled with Kubernetes, which helps you rapidly deploy, scale and manage your containers. Together, they administer rapid software delivery and take care of its scaling.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
