Meeting Demand for Distributed Computing in Finance

Analytics of securitized and derivative products is a challenge in that it is data-intensive, computationally expensive and must be done by the deadline. Concurrently, the industry demands faster computations, while IT budgets remain the same or have been reduced, presenting the proverbial business conundrum: how to do more with less.

Albeit, the topology of these computations falls into the "embarrassingly parallel" category, a prime candidate to leverage Amdahl's Law, which states that larger
