The London Stock Exchange Goes Down For Whole Day

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the at-least-no-one-died-...-yet dept.

Colin Smith writes "TradElect, the Microsoft .Net based trading platform for the London Stock Exchange, was offline for about seven hours, meaning that their 5-nines SLAs are shot for approximately the next 100 years. The TradElect system was launched back in June of 2007 and was designed for increased speed and system capacity."
