Feranor
Consulting
We engineer systems that cannot afford to fail
About Feranor
Feranor is a technology consulting practice based in Lyon, France, specializing in the architecture and governance of high-performance distributed systems. Built on 18+ years of .NET, Azure, and large-scale platform engineering.
We help engineering teams master complexity through clear ownership, explicit contracts, and structural accountability using the principles behind Distributed Hive Governance (DHG).
We work with major European institutions and strategic partners on the systems that keep their operations running.
When systems fail and urgency rises, we intervene as a task-force unit, engineered for decisive action.
Feranor is available for high-impact engagements.
Our areas of expertise
Distributed architecture & engineering
High-performance platforms on .NET and Azure, spanning microservices, middleware, event-driven systems. Designed with precision, operated with intent.
Governance of complex systems
Ownership, standards, and accountability structured so systems stay maintainable as they scale. From scaling teams with unclear ownership to governing autonomous AI agents in production.
Reliability & performance engineering
DevOps, DevSecOps, and FinOps practices; rigorous testing and optimization.
High availability is not a promise. It is a measured, audited result.
Sovereign infrastructure
Architecture for digital sovereignty, on-premise infrastructure in regulated contexts.
Solutions
Distributed Hive Governance
Distributed systems rarely fail because of code. They fail because of ambiguity. Unclear ownership, competing modules, undocumented decisions, and changes nobody can trace. Scale amplifies every one of these while AI-driven engineering amplifies them faster.
Distributed Hive Governance (DHG) is Feranor's answer, a governance paradigm that establishes non-negotiable rules of structure and ownership. Each module operates within defined boundaries; responsibilities, approvals, and interactions are codified; every change happens inside an auditable framework. Standardized interaction contracts harmonize modules that would otherwise compete for resources or diverge in design.
The result is a system in which teams scale independently without compromising stability, and in which no single component, human or autonomous, can introduce systemic failure. Strict governance, architectural flexibility, organizations innovate rapidly without losing coherence, oversight, or strategic direction.
Architecting the End of Chaos
The complete DHG framework across 23 chapters. From the mathematics of system chaos to governing autonomous AI agents with explicit scopes and human checkpoints.
Krachen
Krachen is a high-performance automated trading platform developed by Feranor, designed for reliable and resilient execution.
One execution flow. Backtesting, paper trading, and live execution on the same core. Dynamic strategy configuration, live orchestration, high-throughput data streams.
Risk under control. Advanced risk controls and fail-safe mechanisms, credit risk analysis, stress-testing, performance attribution in real time.
Governed by design. DHG-based structure, compliance enforcement, tamper-resistant and fully auditable execution trails.
Connected and observable. Multi-broker connectivity through a hardened API gateway with real-time metrics, observability, and structured reporting. AI-assisted decision workflows and adaptive strategy tuning.
When failure is not an option, structure is the answer
