Multinational Bank achieves Security Compliance using DROPS to Deploy across ‘Segregated’ Hybrid Clouds
The Customer
The Customer is one of the largest banking and financial services corporations in Canada.
Context
All IBM i systems at the bank run on premise in the same data center, while the Azure front-end is managed and served by cloud-based resources. To comply with strict security regulations, the private environments (development, test, and pre-production) had to be isolated from thecustomer facing production environment.
Solution
Complete network segregation was facilitated by the integration of Azure Artefacts and the use of ARCAD’s DROPS.
Case Study Highlights
Company: Multinational Bank
- Industry: Finance
- Characteristics:
To deploy from the development cloud to the production cloud, DROPS manages a deployment package (in the case of IBM i, a savefile) containing tested application objects. - Challenge:
The goal is to guarantee smooth, secure application deployment, while taking into account the separation between production and development environments. The automation of Azure pipelines and the replicability of instances ensure a reliable process, with automatic restoration in the event of error. - Solution: DROPS
"The progress we’ve made is incredible. The team’s feedback has been all positive. We now deploy ALL artifacts securely across our hybrid cloud environment. ARCAD’s DROPS has led to a reduction in work, and time savings.
