The Opportunity is now!
Requirements:
• Present the data we already have to
customer applications.
• Combine deep analytics with session
data (“fast analytics”) to provide
intelligent predictions to applications.
• Present the data we already have to
internal applications.
• Safely and efficiently expose the
data we already have to 3rd parties.
• Have unified data for a customer
across products.
Macquarie
THE CHALLENGE: Drive digital transformation initiatives to
enhance customer experience.
7
• Transformed from no retail presence to a digital consumer banking leader in less than 2 years.
• Macquarie used DSE as the core of a operational data-layer to enhance rather than replace.
• Consolidated data from many existing disparate systems delivers 360o, real-time customer visibility.
• Their world-class consumer banking app utilizes real-time analytics and full text search
ING Focuses on Customer
Experience and Micro-Services
• Focusing on customer experience ING has moved to a
touch-point architecture based increasingly on micro-
services
• Need for availability, consistency, and scalability
• Lots of small use cases, DevOps teams, no ephemeral
storage
• 12 clusters (4/5 environments)
• Cassandra eases availability challenges by being
active-active and having an always-on architecture.
THE CHALLENGE: Availability.
