Banking

The ongoing IT challenge for banks is how to fuel growth and profitability while improving operational efficiency. These goals promote a movement toward open, flexible data centers, and increasingly, the move to the cloud. When it comes to IT solutions to address the most difficult challenges that banks are facing, innovative solutions from Three Pillars lead the way. From the front office to back-office operations and into the cloud, Three Pillars can help you modernize your IT infrastructure to deliver competitive financial products and superior service. Banks are already capitalizing on the advantages of server and storage virtualization, but new SDN tools can extend these same benefits to the network. By virtualizing compute, storage, and network services with powerful SDN solutions from Juniper, banks gain greater business agility and IT cost savings. Protecting the cloud infrastructure is critical, too. Banking applications demand high-performance, highly resilient security that can defend critical applications, with consistent latency even in volatile conditions. Juniper solutions enable banks to accelerate trading and market data applications, using a distributed architecture, with powerful QFX5100 data center switches. And with high-speed SRX Series next-generation firewalls, you can keep those applications and data secure. We also deliver solutions to improve efficiency for back-office operations. A carrier-grade network and automated network operations can help you maximize your bank’s IT investments. With the MetaFabric Architecture from Juniper, you can build the right WAN core, simplify and consolidate the data center, and gain new agility by automating and orchestrating your infrastructure. The MetaFabric reference architecture helps you build the reliable, highly available, business-critical IT data center you need, using a combination of switching and routing, management, and security platforms from Juniper.

Insurance

Technology is transforming the insurance business, from a customer’s first interaction to back-office operations. Trends such as social, mobile, big data analytics, and the cloud are profoundly altering insurance business models. For property and casualty, life and annuity, reinsurance and brokers, these changes bring new opportunities—and new risks. Three Pillars helps insurers rethink their IT infrastructure so they can confidently take advantage of new opportunities. Our solutions help you set new benchmarks for efficiency in back-office operations and move your business to the cloud. We offer a suite of products and technologies that deliver consistent performance for your critical customer-facing and back-office applications. We can help you create data centers that are as simple, open, and smart as they are agile and scalable.
