Jamaican eGATE on Oracle AS

2006-10-30

During the last six years the eGATE system (application developed by Anasoft APR for the Bank of Jamaica) Bank of Jamaica has been calculating foreign exchange (FX) quotations against the Jamaican dollar and supporting online auction of government bonds. With this system, the National Bank of Jamaica has been able to respond to exchange rate movements on a daily basis and with certainty of the most stringent security measures.

After six years of useful life, this software is being converted to an Oracle platform. The project is in final testing stages and is expected to go live later this year. The DBMS used is the Oracle 10.g database. We are using the Oracle Application Server and Oracle Java tools. After the conversion additional enhancements are contemplated.
