Customizing the Market Risk Accelerator

This page describes the options available for customizing the Accelerator to meet your requirements.

Customization Options

Clients may choose to use an Accelerator “as is” by conforming to published data input file structures and data stores. Alternatively, clients may use the Accelerator purely as a starting point for building a suitable system with additional functionality.

Customization Details
Adding Maven repositories and extracting the source code before installation, in order to build the entire project.
This will build the executable JAR files for ActivePivot and an optimized version of the UI.
Building & deploying the Accelerator
Making changes at start-up to the following components:
* ActivePivot
* ActiveUI
Guidelines for developing on the Accelerator
