Real-Time Financial Intelligence Platform Tracking 2,000+ Equities

Engineered a real-time market intelligence platform tracking 2,000+ equities with sub-300ms latency, featuring decoupled microservices, KiteConnect websocket streaming, and an MCP-powered agentic natural-language market assistant.

Engagement Scope: Microservices Architecture, High-Speed Caching & Agentic MCP Integration

Engineered the decoupled real-time ingestion pipeline, Redis speed layer, and MCP-powered Stock Guru assistant currently serving live traders.

01The Problem & Business Challenge

Processing high-frequency tick data across thousands of listed companies while computing complex valuation ratios and summarizing dense 100-page earnings filings. Synchronous processing caused live ticker freezes and chart latency, while unconstrained LLM calls resulted in 10-second wait times and runaway token bills.

02The Architectural Solution

Engineered a decoupled microservices architecture separating market data ingestion, quantitative analytics calculation, AI document synthesis, and authentication. Implemented a multi-tier Redis speed layer for sub-300ms dashboard speeds. Integrated Google Generative AI via an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server inside the Xpectrum Agentic platform, allowing natural-language queries grounded in verified database tools.

03What We Built & Execution Details

Built dedicated KiteConnect WebSocket workers streaming market ticks directly to memory. Deployed Redis caching for live quotes, financial ratios, and pre-computed AI summaries. Structured database persistence with PostgreSQL, SQLAlchemy, and Alembic migrations. Engineered deterministic MCP tools enabling the Stock Guru assistant to query live charts without hallucinations.

04Engineering Challenges & Trade-Offs

Preventing cache stampede and database connection pool starvation during market opening surges; enforcing strict mathematical grounding on AI market assistants to eliminate financial hallucinations.

Measured Commercial Outcome

Continuously tracks 2,000+ publicly traded companies; sub-300ms dashboard transitions under market opening volatility; zero tick feed degradation; instant extraction of hidden balance sheet risks from 100-page financial filings.

“In finance, speed is everything, and data is ruthless. Shubham and his team didn’t just build a platform; they engineered a high-performance pipeline. The microservices architecture, Redis caching for sub-300ms speeds and AI NLP summaries turned thousands of unstructured reports into real-time actionable intelligence.”

You own the system.
The code. The infra. The data.

Software should not become valuable enough to matter and then be impossible for the client to own or operate.

Everything I build is 100% client-owned intellectual property from day one. You own the code, the accounts, the infrastructure, and the data. No vendor lock-in.
