CTS 6.0 - The Beginning of a New Architecture for the Future of the CTS Platform

CTS TRADE IT, a leading provider of software solutions for capital markets, announces the release of version 6.0 of its CTS platform. This milestone marks the beginning of a technological transformation toward a microservice-based architecture, ready to meet the evolving needs of the banking and financial sector.

After years of continuous development of the 5.x line — culminating in the final version 5.29 — the time has come for a major architectural shift. Version 6.0 introduces a new technological direction.

“Version 6.0 is more than just another number. It’s a symbol of our commitment to moving forward. Both technologically and conceptually. The first microservice we’ve deployed into production is proof that we’re on the right path. At the same time, we know that true transformation is a long-distance journey, and we’re ready for it,” says Tomáš Gavlas, CEO of CTS TRADE IT.

Microservices as the Foundation of Future Architecture

The implementation of the first production microservice marks the start of a gradual modernization of the existing monolithic platform. This new approach will enable:

• Better scalability of individual system components
• Faster integration with modern APIs and cloud environments
• More flexible adaptation to the specific needs of individual clients

This architectural shift is taking place in parallel with maintaining the continuity of the existing platform, which continues to deliver high performance and reliability to banks, brokers, and other financial institutions.

A Long-Term Vision 

CTS TRADE IT remains fully committed to in-house development, investing thousands of man-days annually. This strong internal development capacity and experienced product team allow us to manage the transformation without compromising platform stability or service quality.

“Our clients expect not just functionality, but long-term readiness. Version 6.0 is our commitment to supporting them in the decade to come,” adds Tomáš Gavlas.
