As far as opensource goes...
- There's the above sort of thing on the user side that interfaces
with an existing exchange to place orders, etc.
- There are some tradedesk like things for analysis of
market feeds and history from an exchange.

Those two are sometimes blended together in one tool.

Then the third component is...

What software is out there that implements an exchange itself?
Be it for currency pairs, stocks, or commodity trade floor.
Currency pairs being the primary example above.

List software for centralized models...

List software for distributed models...

Note that a distributed "marketplace" where users buy and sell
"things", is not really an exchange engine itself, though it may
serve similar end purpose. Whereas an ethereum program might
be considered a true engine, an API, perhaps collecting, advertising
and executing buy / sell orders, without need for user to see or
deal individually with all the other users making up the liquidity.
