Time synchronization is a critical requirement of modern computer systems. Service oriented architectures need to keep accurate time stamped logs across multiple services and multiple instances for debugging and root cause analysis. Authentication and authorization protocols are built on the foundation of accepting connection only with correct timestamps. Distributed systems such as synchronous databases require global synchronization of master nodes to achieve transaction consistency. Financial regulators require accurate timestamps from market participants to ensure trading fairness and auditability.
