"We need access to the best skills and solutions to protect our clients against increasing cyber threats."
"IBM Nordcloud has integrated successfully with the Helvetia team and other partners, which has enabled the migration from the Helvetia Data-Centers to mainly AWS in such a short time-frame.”
“We were in fear of peak. We had a site built for a pre-Covid world and knew that it would be difficult to balance a site and keep it running and moving in peak times. Going from 7,000 people a minute to 19,000 at its highest peak just wasn’t working; we needed to upgrade the entire infrastructure and tools.”
“They have a competitive edge over the larger, more classical banks that are still transitioning to becoming true digital banks. If banks don’t embrace digitization, I think they will lose relevance to customers pretty rapidly.”
“The challenge is to make sure there is just the right combination of a good experience for clients and a fast, usable and scalable digital solution behind it for the banks, which also works with all the systems the bank already has.”
“We wanted to enable those banks, fintechs, independent service organizations, and bill aggregators and initiators to use our services.”
"We wanted to maintain the same high level of security on our API platform as in our legacy format. The DataPower model provides an environment where transactions and access to APIs are extremely secure."
"There is a constant push towards digitization now—especially this year, because of COVID. The good news is that we are prepared."
“We installed it a long time ago—around a decade back—and it was affecting what we could do. Slicing and dicing our sales records or just managing the data took a lot of time. We couldn’t push things automatically. It was restricting our opportunities for growth and enhancement.”
“20 Microns was comfortable with the reliability of IBM Power hardware since they had used it in the past—with Power you don’t often see the downtime challenges that you do with x86 servers. So we worked with IBM to home in on the sizing and configuration for the project and built a production and recovery architecture with IBM hardware.”
“Most digital communications are text-based. As people, we’re designed to interact in an emotional capacity—I wink or smile at you, and you respond accordingly. But all that is stripped out in the digital world.”
"I think what stood out for us was the agility of the platform, the flexibility that the IBM API Connect platform afforded, the ease with which my technology team was going to be able to use it, and that it was backed with IBM’s support and expertise."
"Step one was selecting the SIEM tool that would meet this client’s current needs and provide a strategic platform for the future."
“We really need to cross-reference the interests and the constraints of a large scale of topics. Regarding the territories we are working on, we need to have some political agreement, we need to check all the environmental, technical and acoustical constraints, and we need to find agreements with all the landowners of each area. With all these parameters accounted for, we are able to propose a project to the local administration, which then accepts or declines.”
“A consumer can find any number of automotive dealers or providers selling the same cars in Egypt. So the edge is not about the type of products that AGM delivers or how fancy our showrooms are, but the type of experience that we offer to consumers. So what makes AGM stand out and be the trendsetter? It’s our digital services, which require a solid, state-of-the-art technological backbone."
