3forge launches enterprise application fabric

3forge launched 3forge Enterprise, an application fabric for financial institutions that unifies real-time and historical market data, business logic, AI agents, native APIs and operational controls. The platform draws on more than 12 years of the company’s real-time infrastructure deployments and is available now.

The product groups capabilities into a governed real-time intake and exhaust layer for data, an application engine to run business logic and user interfaces, an AI-assisted development layer for creating workflows and analytics, and an operational control layer for centralized management and instrumentation. The company says these layers let vendor platforms, internal systems and AI-enabled applications access the same data and services while preserving entitlements and audit trails required by capital markets.

A Data Gateway provides unified current-state access to tables, streams and stored procedures across nodes in the fabric. It supports enterprise queries, SQL-style subscriptions, caching, conditional streams, dynamic subscriptions with fan-out, load balancing, secure transport and access audit logging. Native client libraries for Java, Python and C++ let developers publish, subscribe, query and insert data directly, and the platform offers integrations with JDBC, Pandas and SQLAlchemy as well as failover support.

The platform includes Model Context Protocol-compatible agent access and AI environments with controlled entry to enterprise data, using OAuth 2.0, role-based access control and full audit trails. Live Prompting and agentic development tools allow business users and developers to generate applications and workflows with AI assistance inside the application engine. In a demonstration, 3forge produced the foundation of a real-time stock-tracking application in 11 minutes using 74 lines of code; prompt-driven changes appeared immediately in the running application without recompilation, relaunch or redeployment.

An Operations Hub centralizes monitoring, alerts, reporting, instrumentation, distributed licensing and secure administrator connectivity. The hub supports containerized deployment of 3forge components and is instrumented to manage deployments at scale and maintain production controls used by trading and risk systems.

3forge lists buy-side and sell-side firms among its customers and says 3forge Enterprise provides a single runtime and development environment where data, logic, execution and AI coexist under enterprise controls instead of in separate, manually integrated systems.

Robert Cooke, founder and CEO of 3forge, described the application fabric as ‘bringing data, decisions, execution, AI and applications onto the same controlled, auditable foundation.’ He said the platform is intended to let business users interact with governed real-time data while developers supervise AI-assisted work and technology teams maintain production controls.
