Glue42 Releases New Open-Source Platform

Integrated desktop provider Glue42 has released a new version of its open-source platform, which enables different business lines within a business to collaborate more effectively across their entire fintech ecosystem.

The firm says the update follows users’ requests for simplified development and deployment processes. With the new version, development teams will now be able to deploy the technology across multiple domains and deliver optimised workflows regardless of whether the apps reside in or outside their firm’s network.

Noting that the release comes at a time of great market volatility, the firm adds that by combining disparate applications into unified workspaces, manual tasks including search, copy/paste and inter-app navigation can be eliminated – so traders can respond to market events faster.

For IT teams, Glue42 claims it’s an easy way to familiarise themselves with the concept of desktop interop. The open license along with a familiar browser environment helps them evaluate and adopt the software at a pace that is comfortable to each individual team. It is also fully compatible with existing desktop interop solutions for a deeper desktop integration when necessary.
