Bank Systems & Technology

The data center stands as the single most important asset in a bank's ability to complete transactions and service customers. And as part of ongoing efforts to reduce expenses, improve efficiency and boost performance, the data center is in a constant state of reinvention. Today, it's difficult to talk data centers without talking about cloud computing.

Bank Systems & Technology's June digital issue explores how banks are leveraging automation, virtualization and the cloud to transform their data centers and sharpen IT service and delivery. We look at lessons learned and a few cautionary tales, and offer best practices to help ensure a smooth transformation.
