ANZ CIO: A new technology to build private cloud-exerting force

When the Federal Bank of Australia (Commonwealth Bank of Australia) CIO Michael (Michael Harte) said that the past business could not be moved to the "absolute garbage" cloud and dismissed data sovereignty and security blocks, ANZ CIO Annivestone (Anne Weatherston) is a completely different approach.

For http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/14583.html "> Australia cio,gartner Annual Seminar/ITxpo, Annivestone (Anne Weatherston) Said the bank had implemented a private cloud service for Eix Solar Micro System (Solaris) during 2012 and would continue to implement private cloud services for the windows and Teradata environments under the mainframe for the next two years.

"Private cloud is very important to us, we think we can quickly provide a large number of business services within the scope of services, and the implementation of the private cloud in IT spending has also saved nearly 70% of the cost," she said. ”

ANZ outlines 2017 strategic direction

ANZ has also released iOS client applications for better interaction with customers and providing services.

She says there is no need to be more interesting than private clouds because of the regulatory environment in ANZ. The Australian Prudential Authority (APRA) remains opposed to the use of public and mixed clouds.

Since 2011 Viston (Weatherston) that cloud computing is not mature enough for the financial services sector, she is now beginning to have a much weaker view of the past cloud computing.

However, security remains paramount in his answer to the 32 regulatory adjustments of ANZ banks in 32 countries across the Asia-Pacific region. These adjustments, she says, have raised concerns about the security of information running in public and public clouds.

If you look at the vast majority of cyber-crime hackers, they are attacking through the clouds, she said. For example, Sony's prepaid card (Playstation receptacle) experienced an attack on Amazon's servers in 2011.

When it comes to customers, security is a top priority for bank clients. In similar financial transactions, many customers are not accustomed to the type of cloud interaction, Viston said.

We must assume the value of customer data and the responsibility of the data guardian.

Mobile Bank

Into mobile banking, Villestone said ANZ is actively committed to resetting GoMoney networks and mobile applications.

The strategy is to replace our existing online business and mobile services with the choice of Sybase365.

According to Viston, Sybase drives the development of the bank's mobile platform, which looks increasingly likely to be close to GoMoney as the Cross-channel function is released.

Our customers have experienced a lot of frustration over how to make operations like GoMoney on specific iphones and Android devices. This service used to be available on any device and has a consistent operating experience.

For example, an ANZ customer who uses the Internet or mobile banks on tablets and Android phones can see the same functionality and conduct banking, payment and understanding of account details.

She added that ANZ expected to GoMoney in Australia in the first half of 2013.

The use value of GoMoney still exists, and what you can do on GoMoney can also be done in Sybase.

Near-field communications (NFC)

In addition to reconfiguring GoMoney, ANZ currently has a virtual Visa or MasterCard card installed on every employee smartphone in Australia's 30 banks to pilot the approach to communication payment technology (NFC).

The bank plans to release the details of the commercialization of NFC payment technology in 2013.

NFC is experimenting with experiments because it is currently trying to understand its share to include in our investment, Viston said. Technological change, such as NFC, is only a matter of time, and in the future Australia will discover the potential of this technology ahead of any other country in the world.

The beauty of Sybase and GoMoney is the ability to integrate NFC traffic into the platform, where customers can have a holistic process of banking transactions.

Offshore Outsourcing and business outsourcing

Although Viston has no plans to adopt the West Bank CIO Clive Wynkoop (Clive Whincup) about more it work offshore outsourcing strategy, she says regional it centers are important for banks. "When I joined ANZ in 2010, 1500 of its IT staff were located in Bangalore, India and other regions." This is not a departure from the Super-regional bank plan we are planning to build, but it is true, she said. ”

We believe that all services can be delivered from a range of delivery centers. For example, by looking at how it is used, it development departments can get the best skills. New Zealand plans to establish excellence in scientific research centres in our core areas, such as payment and data management.

According to Viston, in New Zealand, the country is likely to become a bank's payment development centre because of its technical concentration.

She recently planned an IT department for 4,000 employees in Australia that does not outsource major IT functions.

I still don't recognize the outsourcing model, because many of the outsourced trading models that provide it with a supplier eventually become very difficult, she said. If you have the right leadership and staff, you will be able to perform major IT functions as efficiently as any outsourced organization can arrange.

However, Viston does endorse what she considers a managed service agreement for Non-core banking IT capabilities.

Earlier this year, we consulted with Capgemini on all the implementation projects, and the reason for consulting with Capgemini was that there were 700 executives and 60% contractors on the project.

The main purpose of the consultation with Capgemini is to improve the consistency of work and the quality of service, through the consultation of our implementing personnel, so that Kai-jie can be better trained and developed.
