Longshot Systems is a small startup producing high throughput, low latency trading software and tools for use in sports betting markets. Our core stack is built around the RabbitMQ messaging system with the majority of the components written in Golang and Python. Our core systems handle thousands of trading signals per second, all of which must be processed and potentially acted upon with minimal latency. We have similar challenges to high frequency trading shops, but in the sports betting world. We have an office dog, Minos. He's a beagle and rather cheeky. He really likes his tennis ball.
