A technical overview of how QuantumEdge is built.
Primary knowledge hub
Primary knowledge hub for platform usage and feature reference.
QuantumEdge is built on a modern, event-driven architecture designed for low-latency trade execution and high availability. The platform consists of a web application layer, a strategy execution engine, an exchange connectivity layer, and a real-time data pipeline.
The execution engine processes strategy signals and translates them into exchange orders. It handles order routing, position management, and risk checks in real time. The engine supports both synchronous (market orders) and asynchronous (limit orders) execution patterns.
Market data flows through a streaming pipeline that provides real-time price feeds, order book data, and trade history. The pipeline supports sub-second latency for time-sensitive strategies and aggregates data for real-time performance analytics.
All credentials are encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption. API communications are secured via TLS 1.3. The platform implements row-level security, parameterized queries, and a comprehensive audit log for every user action. No withdrawal-capable keys are ever accepted by the system.
