Salt Lake City Utah (I-Newswire) October 17, 2010 - Altaira has announced development of a Microsoft Silverlight interface to its Cross-Asset Pricing and Risk Portfolio System, integrating multimedia, graphics, animations and interactivity into a single runtime environment.

• 100% Microsoft® .NET and C# for rapid application development and easy maintenance

• Microsoft Silverlight for an amazingly rich client interface, either web-based or locally hosted

• Grid computing for outstanding performance and virtually unlimited scalability (scale-up, scale-out)

• Web services for both cross-platform interoperability and full extensibility

• Three-tiered architecture allowing any component (presentation, logic or data) to be upgraded or replaced independently

• Market-standard (public domain) and open-source models by default, but many more can be supported with the client's choice of proprietary or third-party models.

Silverlight delivers an engaging experience through all major browsers on Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux client operating systems, and can run on mobile devices such as Windows Phone 7, Nokia Series 60.
