[JBookTrader] Raspberry PI as marekt data recorder for JBookTrader

[new_trader]

Hi guys,
I just wanted to inform you that I have successfully managed to setup a
Raspberry PI system as a market data recorder for JBookTrader.

It has the following setup:
* Raspberry PI model B (512 Mb RAM)
* 8 GB SD card class 10
* power supply from my internet router
* connected to router via 100 MBit/s ethernet cable
* overclocking og raspberry PI in mode high (is officially supported now)
* OS: Raspian from standard image (Debian Linux)
* Java version: Oracle 8 JDK
* Remote Access: remote desktop from Windows 7 via xrdp and ssh
* DynDns via ddconfig
* software config: IBGateway from IB, current JBookTrader source from web
repository, compiled on Windows
* startup time IBGateway: ~30 seconds, JBookTrader ~ 10 seconds
* recording for two symbols
* avg cpu usage: IBGateway ~ 5%, JBookTrader ~ 10%
* mem usage: 431 MB totally used on system, * avg cpu usage: IBGateway ~
50%, JBookTrader ~ 10%

the config is running stable 24/7 since about 2 weeks now

Awesome. The first question that immediately popped in my head was "Why?".
But now I can see why. A $35 dedicated device that does the same job as a
bloated and power wasting $3,500 rig. Well done.

yes this little device is really awesome. standard linux with a very large
community gives you a very robust platform.
hardware absolutely cheap, operating costs - mainly electricity - at the
fraction of a desktop or laptop system

Really cool, I had read about raspberry on slashdot.org a while back,
didn't think I could make it work so dropped the idea. I'll definitely look
it up again. Do you use a virtual host to remote connect as well?

yes I can do a remote connect via ssh and Windows Remote Desktop.
Therefore you need the xrdp package to enable the Remote Desktop Protocol.
JBT and IBGateway are running on the X-Windows environment and are managed
(start/stop/health check) remotely via Remote Desktop Client from Microsoft.

You can use the ddclient package to connect to your favority dnydns provider

Thanks, think I'll try a local setup first, then find a server host.
