Summary

DirectQuery

  • Direct Query Database Configuration changes: Some fields have been modified in this version. See the Direct Query Database Configuration section below for a complete list of changes.
  • Parent-child support with DirectQuery : LegalEntityParentChild and BookParentChild data can be provided in place of the LegalEntityHierarchy and BookHierarchy tables respectively.
  • Direct Query Database Configuration changes: Some fields have been modified in this version. See the Direct Query Database Configuration section below for a complete list of changes.
  • Additional DirectQuery Configuration Properties: See the new properties added to the application.yaml file.
  • DirectQuery distribution configuration: The distribution configuration in DirectQuery now requires three nodes instead of two. See DirectQuery Horizontal Distribution for details on how to set up distribution when using DirectQuery.
  • Migration REST Service: The Migration REST Service allows for extracting of data into a format that is ready to be loaded into one of the supported DirectQuery databases.
  • DirectQuery Annotations: Annotations for use with DirectQuery have been added to help make defining beans and configuration classes easier when using DirectQuery.
  • New Date Filter Configuration Bean: The newly added directQueryDatesToIncludeFilter bean allows for custom configuration of which dates to include in your DirectQuery data node.
  • Removed “preview” package: The preview package has been removed from the frtb-directquery module. All child packages or classes have been moved to the parent frtb package.
  • DirectQuery nodes work with InMemory Sign-off enabled nodes: A DirectQuery data node can now be connected to nodes with Sign-off enabled. The enable-signoff spring profile must be active on all nodes (in-memory and DirectQuery).
  • Removed CacheRemoteTableLocallyTuplePublisher: You no longer need custom channel parameters when defining a cached remote table.

Other Changes

  • Curvature store un-vectorized : Curvature store has been un-vectorized.
  • ChannelParameters follow fluent conventions : We have changed how ChannelParameters are created by following fluent conventions instead of relying on a handful of constructors.
  • Desk Descriptions separated from BookParentChild & BookHierarchy Stores: Desk Descriptions has been added to store desk descriptions.
  • Stop Using Trade-Level PV and Notional for DRC and Curvature: Measure Chains for DRC and Curvature stores have been adjusted to use PV and Notional respectively.
  • Split Desks from Book Parent Child: Desk Descriptions have been separated from the BookHierarchy store.
  • What-If upgrade to 2.0.1: See What-If section below for the summary of changes.
  • Book Desk Switching What-If Added new what-if for switching the desk of a given book. Works similarly to a desk model switch what-if
  • Merged SA Sensitivities stores : Fixed memory use issue by merging the stores TradeBase, Delta, Vega, Curvature, and DRCBase into a single SASensitivities store.
  • Added SA Query Cube : With this query cube, you can now query data across multiple data nodes in the StandardisedApproachCube.
  • Minor database field changes: Some fields have been modified in this version. See the Databases section below for a complete list of changes.
  • Parameter Adjustments: Updated parameters to match ISDA requirements in all data sets.
  • Actuator Endpoint: Tightened security in default configuration for Spring boot actuator and now require admin role.
  • Minor Refactoring of initialDataLoad bean: This bean now depends on a new bean, initialConfigDataLoad. More can be read below.

Parent-child support with DirectQuery

Previously the LegalEntityHierarchy and BookHierarchy stores had to define 5 and 15 levels respectively. Now, rather than creating and managing the LegalEntityHierarchy and BookHierarchy Tables yourself, you can instead just provide a ParentChild table, then create a series of views to generate the LegalEntityHierarchy and BookHierarchy Tables on the remote database.

For the SQL script to create the views to populate from a ParentChild table, see:

Stop Using Trade-Level PV and Notional for DRC and Curvature

Measure Chains for DRC and Curvature stores have been adjusted to use PV and Notional respectively. A migration script has been provided for migrating input data for each store. The scripts can be found in the folder frtb-starter/src/scripts.

Script Description
CopyCurvatureFromTradeAttributes.py Retrieves PV from Trade Attributes file for each trade in a Curvature file. Additionally if PVApplied is ‘N’, and currencies don’t match, it queries a running project for the value.
CopyDRCFromTradeAttributes.py Retrieves PV and Notional from Trade Attributes file for each trade in a DRC file.

Split Desks from Book Parent Child

Desk Descriptions have been separated from the BookHierarchy store. BookParentChild.csv has been deprecated and renamed to BookParentChild.v1.csv. Old files can still be loaded and a migration script has been provided for the new file format.

Script Description
SplitBookParentChild.py Migration script which takes BookParentChild.v1.csv and creates BookParentChild.v2.csv, DeskDescription.csv and BookDeskMapping.csv

What-If upgrade to 2.0.1

  • AWhatIfDefinition is now ADatabaseSimulationDefinition.
  • SimulationDefinitions create JsonDatabaseActions which can be INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE.
  • To clean up the logic in the What-If REST controllers, some elements have been moved to simulation definitions.
  • Now that desk descriptions are separated from the BookParentChild store, we use the common library implementation of BookParentChildWhatIfSubmitter.

SA Query Cube

The SA Query Cube, named “StandardisedApproachCube”, allows for querying across multiple SA data nodes. When running an application with DirectQuery and in-memory data, you are now be able to query all data in the StandardisedApproachCube. Previously, querying across the multiple nodes was only available in the combined cube.

AsOfDate Filter Config Bean

A new bean directQueryDatesToIncludeFilter has been added that supports complex logic for which dates to include in your DirectQuery data node. You no longer have to specify the dates you want to exclude from your DirectQuery data node through the initial-load.business-dates property.

Measure Customizations

The annotations used to customize measures have changed as follows:

Cube Old Annotation New Annotation List of Measures
StandardisedApproachCube @SACopperContextBean @SAMeasure
InternalModelsApproachCube @IMACopperContextBean @IMAMeasure IMA Cube Measure Beans
StressCalibrationCube @StressCalibrationMeasure

Additionally, the @Primary annotation is no longer needed on the custom measures.

See Replacing Cube Measures for more details.

Other changes

initialDataLoad bean refactoring

The initialDataLoad bean has been slightly altered to now rely on an initialConfigDataLoad bean which is responsible for loading the configuration data. The overall logic and order of file loading has not changed. Moving the loading of the configuration data into its own bean allows for cleaner configuration of a DirectQuery application.

Removed CacheRemoteTableLocallyTuplePublisher

The CacheRemoteTableLocallyTuplePublisher has been removed. Now when defining tables to cache locally, all that is required is to define the qualified SideStoresToCache bean.
