In an effort to grow the Goldman Sachs Fixed Income Framework (FIF) system to allow for compatibility with new Java tools, Goldman Sachs worked with WebCritical to design and develop a Java API to be integrated into Goldman Sachs' C++ FIF system.

The Java API was designed and developed within four months by the unified Goldman Sachs/WebCritical® team, with the updated C++ implementation following closely behind. This new Java API and updated C++ system has allowed Goldman Sachs to integrate C++ and Java bond trading applications creating a more robust and flexible system. With the help of WebCritical’s® management and technical expertise, the system is now being used as the primary message backbone across more than five divisions within Goldman Sachs.
