Modern core banking system

PostFinance is a diversified, innovation-driven financial services provider that offers its customers smart solutions for all their banking needs. In doing so, PostFinance relies on forward-thinking tools and technologies that are developed or adapted specifically for the Swiss market. NetApp® systems provide the file data for secure banking transactions and speed up the development of financial products and services with persistent storage.

Developing faster and better

PostFinance can implement new functions, services, fixes, and release cycles quickly and securely. The secret to success is NetApp’s ability to deliver persistent storage resources to Kubernetes through Astra Trident. Developers can use self-service to mount, use, and discard storage. Kubernetes takes care of capacity allocation within hard quotas.

NetApp caters for persistent storage. It’s the only way we can provision around 800 shares automatically. No tickets. No waiting times. Everybody wins.

André Kocher, Senior Systems Engineer, PostFinance

Better performance, convenience as usual

Even the best systems eventually need renewal. After 6 years of permanent operation, the file storage was ready for a refresh. Performance, scalability, replication, unified operations for UNIX and Windows shares, support quality, manageability, migration concept, and more were factors in the decision about a vendor and product. NetApp AFF A400 systems with NVMe storage for fast data access won, once again configured as a MetroCluster cluster, but now for IP.

Invest to save

Efficiency methods like data compression, deduplication, and compression at the volume and aggregate levels help PostFinance save on capacity and expansion steps. Combined with NetApp’s all-flash technology, PostFinance can store almost twice as much data as it has capacity in place.
