Back in July in partnership with Confluent, Coforge held a webinar discussing the transformation being caused by event-streaming and event-driven architectures in modern banking. In this blog (and infographic) we summarise the key takeaways from that webinar, showcasing how forward-looking banks are getting ahead of the curve with real-time streaming.
When it comes to banking, event streaming and event-driven architecture is transforming the way banks operate on a daily basis. In the table below, we examine these transformations:
Payment Processing
WITHOUT EVENT STREAMING
WITH EVENT STREAMING
Batch orientated with settlements happening T+1 or T+2
Real-time payment processing High throughput that easily scales on a small hardware footprint
Legacy MQ technologies that are difficult and costly to scale
Batch oriented compliance reporting (OATS, FRTB) Batch view of risk
The ability to aggregate disparate risk systems to get an intra-day view of market & credit risk Real-time pricing using stream processing
Spreadsheet-driven trading Manual clearing and settlements
Integrated and automated clearing & settlement
