Low latency starts with architecture design
A CppCon 2024 talk on ultra-fast trading in C++ highlights how design decisions made before code optimization affect latency.

What happened and what to do
The CppCon 2024 talk presented by David Gross covers ultra-fast trading systems in C++. Published on April 6, 2026, the material highlights that much of the work to reduce latency happens during design, and that early architectural decisions affect system performance.
A company can apply this approach by mapping data flows and critical operations, setting latency targets, and evaluating architectural choices before optimizing code. Wendelmaques can support this work with instrumentation, monitoring, and dashboards to measure production performance.
How the consultancy can help
Wendelmaques can diagnose bottlenecks and latency requirements, propose a scoped architecture, and implement instrumentation, monitoring, and dashboards, as well as support the solution’s operation.
