Well maybe we will be big enough at some point, to take over some of this operating system development and do it right. We think that may come at some point.

And this is really not too much of a stretch, we already have in our active development plans and have partially started the development of voice, video, chat communication, screen sharing, and remote control functionality. All of this is going to be part of Sierra Chart.

Are you referring to adopting an existing OS or to create one from scratch?
Considering the big change in hardware (NEO, Mill, RISC-V) there are exciting times ahead where a company is able to make a dent again. There are a lot of exciting projects (Exokernel, Unikernel, Multikernel), which are, unfortunately, PoCs and of academic nature. Anyway, someone has to start, right?

Going to operating system level in SierraChart would change the whole thing. Big step but done properly would and will be a game changer. Definitely !
--- EDIT
Imagine you could boot directly to the trading environment tuned up for the trading only. Safe and stable environment with low latencies. What a great idea !!

For sure. Running on some passive cooled SBC (Single Board Computer) utilizing the FPGA which comes with it.

Another big advantage: only SC is to be blamed if things go awry, assuming they also provide SCOS (Sierra Chart OS) ;-).
