The challenges

Core Limitations

Legacy core technology is often poorly documented and proves difficult to integrate with internal and third-party solutions.

Data Silos

Banking core diagram

Valuable customer data is stored in multiple systems, making it challenging to provide comprehensive insights to launch new products and services quickly.

Unmanageable IT Landscape

Decades of ad-hoc accumulation of legacy systems result in a brittle point-to-point architecture.

Vendor Dependence

Many vendors provide basic systems and services that come with onerous contracts and a sluggish roadmap.

Resource Constraints

Vendor dependence

It is difficult to utilize the few available IT resources for anything other than custom development and maintenance.

Our Delivery Methodology

Agility Layer

Replace your legacy point-to-point landscape with an API-based agility layer that enables reuse, legacy modernization, and innovation. This allows access to data for new products and services in a matter of days, instead of months.

API-Led Design

Design and build your agility layer using the API-led approach:
1. Expose your data. 2. Describe your business. 3. Present your information to target applications and devices. Build APIs as modular, reusable components.

Integration Platform

Start with a foundational platform that satisfies a few simple use cases. You can evolve that platform at your pace to an enterprise integration platform. This approach can rapidly deliver digital transformation results in line with your budget and resources. Explore the Fintech Hub >

Agile Org Model

Establish a new operating model based on agile principles and scalability. Enable your team to own the solution and train your ecosystem of developers and partners to securely access data through your library of reusable APIs.

Outcomes

Transforming our financial services customers from maintenance mode to innovation shops.
