Release 2 Mayhem

May 29, 2008

 Another crazy week is coming to an end with one of Australia’s biggest funds management companies. Our project plan is finally level and we are about to go full steam into developing a series of new interfaces between our Eagle PACE database and the new derivatives trading system (Imagine).

Our plan to refactor our ETL layer from R1 is also well under way with only a few components still using the old design - putting us in an excellent position to decommision ‘ETL1′ by the end of June.

Our SCRUM development methodology is keeping us focussed and well organised. Sprint 5 started on Monday, running for two weeks until 13th June (when we make another delivery of R1 warranty fixes to Production). The juggling of R1 waranty work and new R2 development is continuing to keep us on our toes and further reinforcing our decision to go with a very agile approach to running the team.
