Abstract: Automated disaster recovery site failover of a messaging platform is disclosed. A processor establishes a communication link between a first data center site and a second data center site via a communication network. The first data center site includes a first database in an active state and the second data center site includes a second database in a passive state during which data replication flows from the first database to the second database. The processor monitors states of the first database and the second database; detects, in response to monitoring, that the first database has changed its state from the active state to the passive state and that the second database has changed its state from the passive state to the active state; and automatically switches, in response to detecting, the data replication flows during which the data replication flows from the second database to the first database.

Abstract: Systems and methods for contingency NAV pricing are disclosed. In one embodiment, in an information processing apparatus comprising at least one computer processor, a method for contingency Net Asset Value (cNAV) pricing may include (1) receiving a daily Net Asset Value (NAV) for a fund and performance data for a plurality of benchmarks; (2) selecting one of the plurality of benchmarks that has a benchmark performance that is similar to a fund performance of the fund for a period of time; (3) determining a correlation factor between the fund performance and the selected benchmark performance; and (4) calculating a cNAV based on a prior day's NAV for the fund, a movement for the selected benchmark, and the correlation factor in response to a daily NAV for the fund being unavailable.
