This expanded collaboration will help banks accelerate their move to the cloud and the benefits of a modern cloud-native banking platform. With Temenos' AI-powered, API-first technology, banks can innovate faster, open up new business models, and achieve industry-leading cost/income ratios. Integration with IBM Cloud demonstrates that our cloud-agnostic banking platform enables banks to pursue a multi-cloud strategy and have the highest levels of active-active resilience with the cloud provider of their choice."
Hillery Hunter, Vice President and CTO, IBM Cloud, added: "We've been teaming with Temenos successfully for decades to help financial institutions around the world deploy next-generation banking technology, reduce costs and exploit new pockets of profitability. By deploying Temenos Transact with Red Hat OpenShift and IBM Hyper Protect on IBM Cloud, and leveraging our GBS Temenos Services Practice, customers can take advantage of IBM's leadership in cloud, security and professional services to provide personalized, innovative offerings while protecting data in the cloud."
