The group also developed a global namespace based on artifactory, which spans through all the Morgan Stanley locations, worldwide, and the software distribution system for managing the content within this global namespace.

All production software and data will use this system and run from the global namespace. The system also handles various aspects of entitlements according to an ever-changing regulatory environment, keeps track of dependencies between various software components in the global namespace, and enforces segregation between development, production, and test environments. The system is highly distributed, highly available, highly resilient, and self-healing.
