I don't understand what exactly this code is about but I have problems imagining the Deutsche Bank as a company that acts "for the greater good".

It seems to be about standardising communication between desktop applications using an RPC broker server (Plexus Interop). It’s aimed at traders, who often use multiple desktop applications (for trading, news, comms) in various runtimes (Java, C#, Python, etc). This tool is some at creating a standard platform enabling those other tools to communicate with each other. I guess like a sort of cross-runtime service bus with service discovery.

(I don’t work in FS, this is just what I can gather from reading the docs).

DB just like every bank in EU actually is legally forced to make some compliance changes for interoperability.

Thus releasing this and possibly pushing workload and costs onto other banks from business side makes sense.

This seems to tie into bolstering the Symphony platform.
