# Routing Configuration System Design

## Overview

This document details the implementation of the routing configuration system for the Order Management System (OMS), which allows users to configure and customize the smart order routing behavior through a flexible and extensible configuration system.

## Configuration Architecture

The routing configuration system provides a hierarchical approach to configuration management:

1. **Global Configuration**: System-wide default settings
2. **Venue-Specific Configuration**: Settings that apply to specific execution venues
3. **Symbol-Specific Configuration**: Settings that apply to specific trading symbols
4. **Strategy-Specific Configuration**: Settings that apply to specific trading strategies
5. **Runtime Configuration**: Dynamic configuration that can be updated during operation

## Configuration Models

### Base Configuration Interface
```csharp
/// <summary>
/// Base interface for all configuration objects
/// </summary>
public interface IConfiguration
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Unique identifier for this configuration
    /// </summary>
    string Id { get; }
    
    /// <summary>
    /// Name of this configuration
    /// </summary>
    string Name { get; }
    
    /// <summary>
    /// Description of this configuration
    /// </summary>
    string Description { get; }
    
    /// <summary>
    /// Whether this configuration is active
    /// </summary>
    bool IsActive { get; set; }
    
    /// <summary>
    /// When this configuration was created
    /// </summary>
    DateTime CreatedAt { get; }
    
    /// <summary>
    /// When this configuration was last updated
    /// </summary>
    DateTime UpdatedAt { get; set; }
    
    /// <summary>
    /// Version of this configuration
    /// </summary>
    int Version { get; }
}
```

### Routing Configuration Model
```csharp
/// <summary>
/// Main routing configuration parameters
/// </summary>

    // Routing criteria weights

    // Performance thresholds

    public Dictionary<TimeOfDayRange, string> TimeBasedVenuePreferences { get; set; } = new Dictionary<TimeOfDayRange, string>();
    
    public static RoutingConfig Default => new RoutingConfig();
}
```

### Time of Day Range Model
```csharp
/// <summary>
/// Represents a time range during the day
/// </summary>
public record TimeOfDayRange(
    TimeSpan StartTime,
    TimeSpan EndTime
)
{
    public bool Contains(DateTime time)

    {

    }

```

### Venue Configuration Model

## Testing Considerations

### Unit Tests for Configuration System
1. **Configuration Validation**: Test validation of different configuration types
2. **Configuration Loading/Saving**: Test persistence of configurations
3. **Configuration Updates**: Test updating configurations with versioning
4. **Venue Selection**: Test venue selection based on different configurations
5. **Symbol-Specific Routing**: Test routing based on symbol configurations

### Integration Tests
1. **Configuration Repository**: Test file-based configuration storage
2. **Dynamic Configuration Updates**: Test updating configurations at runtime
3. **Performance Impact**: Test performance with large configurations
4. **Error Handling**: Test error handling for invalid configurations

## Performance Considerations

### Configuration Caching
```csharp
/// <summary>
/// Caching layer for configurations
/// </summary>
public class ConfigurationCache
{
    private readonly MemoryCache _cache;
    private readonly ILogger<ConfigurationCache> _logger;
    
    public ConfigurationCache(ILogger<ConfigurationCache> logger)
    {
        _logger = logger ?? throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(logger));
        
        var options = new MemoryCacheOptions
        {
            SizeLimit = 1000, // Maximum number of entries
            ExpirationScanFrequency = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5)
        };
        
        _cache = new MemoryCache(options);
    }
    
    public T Get<T>(string key) where T : class
    {
        return _cache.Get<T>(key);
    }
    
    public void Set<T>(string key, T value, TimeSpan expiration) where T : class
    {
        var cacheEntryOptions = new MemoryCacheEntryOptions
        {
            AbsoluteExpirationRelativeToNow = expiration,
            Size = 1
        };
        
        _cache.Set(key, value, cacheEntryOptions);
    }
    
    public void Remove(string key)
    {
        _cache.Remove(key);
    }
    
    public void Clear()
    {
        _cache.Clear();
    }
}
```

## Monitoring and Alerting

### Configuration Change Tracking
```csharp
/// <summary>
/// Tracks configuration changes for monitoring and auditing
/// </summary>
public class ConfigurationChangeTracker
{
    private readonly ILogger<ConfigurationChangeTracker> _logger;
    
    public ConfigurationChangeTracker(ILogger<ConfigurationChangeTracker> logger)
    {
        _logger = logger ?? throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(logger));
    }
    
    public void TrackConfigurationChange<T>(T oldConfig, T newConfig, string userId) where T : class, IConfiguration
    {
        if (oldConfig == null || newConfig == null) return;
        
        var changes = CompareConfigurations(oldConfig, newConfig);
        if (changes.Any())
        {
            _logger.LogInformation("Configuration {ConfigId} changed by {UserId}: {Changes}", 
                newConfig.Id, userId, string.Join(", ", changes));
        }
    }
    
    private List<string> CompareConfigurations<T>(T oldConfig, T newConfig) where T : class, IConfiguration
    {
        var changes = new List<string>();
        
        // Use reflection to compare properties
        var properties = typeof(T).GetProperties(BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance)
            .Where(p => p.CanRead);
            
        foreach (var property in properties)
        {
            var oldValue = property.GetValue(oldConfig);
            var newValue = property.GetValue(newConfig);
            
            if (!Equals(oldValue, newValue))
            {
                changes.Add($"{property.Name}: {oldValue} -> {newValue}");
            }
        }
        
        return changes;
    }
}
```

## Future Enhancements

1. **Database Configuration Storage**: Store configurations in a database for enterprise deployments
2. **Configuration Versioning**: Full version history and rollback capabilities
3. **Configuration Templates**: Predefined configuration templates for different trading scenarios
4. **A/B Testing**: Test different configurations with subsets of orders
5. **Machine Learning**: Use ML to optimize configuration parameters based on performance
6. **Real-time Configuration Updates**: Push configuration updates to running instances
7. **Configuration Auditing**: Full audit trail of all configuration changes
8. **Multi-tenancy**: Support for multiple tenants with separate configurations
