Milemarker Launches Innovative DevTools for Wealth Management
Milemarker has introduced its new DevTools, a powerful command-line toolkit aimed at revolutionizing the way wealth management firms handle analytics and data automation. This groundbreaking solution enables firms to deploy essential metrics, analytics, and insights in mere minutes instead of the traditional weeks-long processes.
Eliminating Bottlenecks
According to Kailash Duraiswami, the CTO of Milemarker, this technology addresses long-standing challenges within wealth management firms, particularly the bottlenecks that develop between engineering, operations, and advisory teams. "With DevTools, we empower engineers and operations professionals to deploy new queries, projections, and metrics directly into production without delay or risk. This level of control allows teams to obtain accurate answers swiftly, maintaining compliance at the same time," he explained.

Milemarker DevTools offers a suite of powerful capabilities that enhance efficiency:
