business intelligence (BI) from across all channels. Staying competitive also means bolstering the foundations of operations through modern technology. TESTING, DEPLOYING, & ENABLING FEATURE UPDATES FASTER Modern platforms leverage newer types of architecture, including those built on dockers and containers. This modular-based approach is an ideal investment for banks, allowing the application to run regardless of its environment and the institution to focus on a specific area or individual module. In addition to a phased deployment, testing and maintenance are also fractional, eliminating the need for the entire application to be taken offline. Because of this approach, these platforms often utilize less space than other virtual machines, reducing costs exponentially. REDUCING YOUR SOFTWARE FOOTPRINT In addition to modular architectures, thin client, cloud-native platforms typically involve less IT oversight from the institution but still maximize compliance and data protection. Information is stored in a hosted environment rather than on the bank’s local servers, lowering infrastructure costs but delivering limitless scalability. Simultaneously, solutions are kept up-to-date with new features and upgrades, ensuring a competitive advantage and maximizing account holder satisfaction. Operational efficiency and remaining agile is key to ensuring that institutions deliver consistent account holder services, while also achieving business goals — including the ability to respond quickly to market changes with greater precision.
