A Middle East-based private investment bank, traditionally focused on wealth management for high-net-worth individuals, wanted to action a strategic initiative to expand into retail banking for HNI clients.
The bank’s core workloads, including core banking, AML, and wealth management, were hosted on a third-party datacenter that needed to be exited. At the same time, the organization had to build a new cloud foundation, migrate workloads, and launch retail banking services within a strict three-month timeline. It was critical to ensure performance, compliance, and operational stability during this period of accelerated transformation.
Cloud4C conducted a full assessment of the bank’s existing datacenter operations and application landscape followed by the design and deployment of an Azure landing zone. A hybrid delivery model was established with dedicated Azure architects, engineers, DevOps, and networking teams to support execution at scale. While the datacenter migration progressed, Cloud4C prioritized enabling key applications required for an immediate retail banking launch. This way, they provided a solution that included infrastructure, governance, and managed services to ensure rapid deployment without compromising on stability or performance.
