Strategy and Solutions

We helped the client develop an AWS-based cloud-native learning management system (LMS) focused on advanced stock trading and hedging simulations with real-time stock data. The LMS was created from scratch, featuring microservices, a content management system, games and quizzes, video-based webinar content, and various levels of subscription management. Our cloud-native architecture allowed for scalable student management while ensuring cost-effective automated scaling. The platform provided RBAC, student registration, classroom management, and grading. Our work helped IL2T overcome the challenge of developing an advanced stock trading learning platform. By creating a sophisticated LMS with real-time stock market pricing data, we enabled IL2T to provide a robust and immersive learning environment for new market participants. This platform, modeled after the TD Ameritrade ThinkorSwim experience, allowed IL2T to offer comprehensive training and effectively manage large cohorts of students globally.
