Fukuoka Financial Group selects Accenture to
transform its new digital-only bank
Accenture (NYSE:ACN) has launched the Accenture Cloud Native
Core Solution to help enterprises leverage the public cloud for
maximum business agility and results.
Often cited as the future of application development, cloud
native computing provides organizations with many significant
benefits, such as the ability to develop new products quickly and
efficiently; get products and services to market faster; and
increase the scale, flexibility and resilience of their IT
environments. As a result, many companies today are seeking to
embrace a cloud native approach — creating applications
specifically for the cloud instead of repurposing legacy
architectures – as a way to maximize the returns on their cloud
migration investments.
The Accenture Cloud Native Core Solution provides clients with
the four core elements they need to chart a cloud native approach,
including:
- changing the architectural style to
microservices/serverless
- using Agile software development approaches
- adapting fresh DevOps processes
- selecting the right hyperscale cloud platform
Accenture will help clients utilize this solution for optimal
organizational transformation, enabling them to develop more
flexible, agile IT systems and build broader ecosystems.
“Leading companies are seeking to increase their business
agility for experiences that go beyond their customers’
expectations,” said Keisuke Yamane, who leads Accenture’s
Intelligent Software Engineering Services Group in Japan. “This
requires a flexible, agile business solution that can rapidly
respond to business changes and expansion. We’re not just
substituting one technology for another. Accenture is helping
clients link together their various technologies, processes and
services to drive measurable business value.”
Companies can use the Accenture Cloud Native Core Solution to
build and deploy microservices and, in turn, break down their big,
monolithic applications into smaller components. This enables each
component to be developed, scaled and maintained independently by
different development teams. Accenture’s solution can also connect
with external capabilities via application programming interfaces;
build and operate near-real-time analytics platforms that leverage
customer data warehouses; and develop personalization services
based on data analytics, among other functions.
The Accenture Cloud Native Solution is ideal for industries that
require a mission critical core backbone system, such as financial
services. Fukuoka Financial Group (FFG) has selected the Accenture
Cloud Native Core Solution to support the banking system for its
“Minna no Ginko” digital-only bank, which FFG plans to launch in
the first half of 2021. As part of that agreement, Accenture will
help FFG drive organizational change and enhance the digital skills
of its workforce.
