The UAT/Demo environment is operated as a series of virtual clustered machines centrally controlled using an Ovirt virtualisation manager for scalability and improved reliability. The UAT sessions operate as closely as possible to production instances compatible with the usual venue connection types, and security measures such as the use of Secure Socket Layers Layer (SSL) transmissions.

The environment maintains an uptime comparable with production and is available from market open to market close, during normal market hours.
