🌐 MongoDB in the Financial Industry: Vector Search and ACID-Compliant Transactions 💰

Danny Chan - Aug 10 - - Dev Community

Topic 1: MongoDB Vector Search Use Cases



- 🏦 Kronos Research (Taipei)

  • 💳 Trades billions of dollars in cryptocurrency
  • 📊 Analyzes and improves algorithmic models
  • 🚀 Quantitative research for high-frequency cryptocurrency trading (HFT)
  • 🤖 Computer programs to transact high volumes of orders in seconds
  • 🌍 Analyzes multiple markets and executes orders
  • 🔗 Derivatives trading
  • 🤖 Machine learning/AI models trained on large volumes of proprietary market data
  • 🔍 Identifies profitable and repeatable market phenomena
  • 🛡️ Extensive operations suite to control risk and prevent trading errors
  • 🔬 Ensures correct behavior even during severe market turbulence



Prediction Intelligence: 🔮

  • 🏢 Data centers as close as possible to actual exchanges to limit latency
  • 🌩️ Crypto exchanges are natively in the cloud, allowing high-frequency traders to be physically located close to the exchanges


Data Format Flexibility: 📂

  • 🗃️ Data are not structurally rigid, like market data (bid and ask prices, trades)
  • 🤖 Bots might have 20 configurations or key-value pairs, while others have only 6
  • 💾 Efficiently store data and analyze how configurations change over time, and how data is updated and selected


Atlas Data Federation: 📊

  • 📊 Charts: Data visualization, easy to create and share
  • 🔍 For specific strategies and simulation results
  • 🔍 Visualize the different relationships
  • 🔍 Adjust the dials for trading bots


Highlight: 💡

  • '🤔 On a given day, what's the distribution of profit and loss results across the different configurations?'



Topic 2: MongoDB and Machine Learning



MongoDB Machine Learning Capabilities: 📊

  • 💻 Handles data analytics, scalability, and distributed processing
  • ⚡️ Accelerates insights by delivering real-time intelligence
  • 🗃️ Manages the data lifecycle from ingestion to transactions to retirement
  • 🚫 Eliminates data duplication
  • ⏱️ Optimized for real-time processing
  • 🔍 Flexible model deployment and model monitoring (drift detection)
  • 🐍 Integrated Python environment


MongoDB Machine Learning Use Cases: 🚀

  • 🚫 Fraud prevention
  • 🔧 Predictive maintenance - patterns to predict and prevent failures
  • 🎯 Real-time recommendation engines
  • 🏭 Process optimization - minimizing costs


ACID-Compliant Transactions in MongoDB: 💹
Challenges Solved:

  1. 🔍 Separate queries to retrieve live and archival data across systems, and merging the results - a pain for developers.
  2. 🔒 Maintaining transactional data integrity between different parties, requiring all-or-nothing execution for multi-document transactions.


ACID-Compliant Examples:

  • 💳 Bank - Transfer of funds between accounts, payment processing, trading platforms, updating the "System of Record" and real-time dashboards.
  • 🏥 Healthcare - Ensuring patient records are updated accurately and up-to-date, preventing data anomalies.
  • 🏪 Inventory Management - Orders are atomic, payment transactions are secure and accurate, updating available inventory.


Cost-Saving Feature: 💰
Online Archive:

  • 🗂️ Optimize costs while keeping data accessible
  • 📂 Custom rules to automatically archive infrequently accessed data to cloud object storage
  • 🔍 Retain the ability to query archived data through a single endpoint
