The challenge

The State Export – Import Bank of Ukraine needed to redesign its IT infrastructure to meet current and coming operational needs. The new system had to be designed to help more than 700 corporate users carry out all necessary transactions. In addition to the extensive technical specifications, The State Export – Import Bank of Ukraine required that its ongoing operations continue uninterrupted during the project’s design, development and implementation phases. In addition, the upgrade had to preserve existing software and technical processes.

The project

The relaunch at the leading Ukrainian financial institute was a complex effort with a number of demanding requirements. Above all, the solution had to be designed for evolutionary growth. The high-performance S&T application thus provides The State Export – Import Bank of Ukraine with clustered IT functionalities that will allow the financial institute to maintain service levels as it grows over the next five years.

The new cluster system is an integrated complex of hardware and software designed to handle all of the client’s internal and external IT processes. By offering a consolidated infrastructure, it reduces the number of technical processes required for the same IT outcomes, thereby shortening system reaction times. So, more customers can now be served and more services provided without system overload.

“Reliability” is also the watchword behind another critical feature: the system’s extensive back up and redundancy capabilities. Designed to meet today’s disaster-proof levels of dependability, the S&T Ukraine solution allows The State Export – Import Bank of Ukraine to operate with greater security in the global IT network.

Over the past half year, S&T has worked with a range of vendors and products to implement this clustered IT solution that converges The State Export – Import Bank of Ukraine’s information processing, information storage, data transfer and system redundancy capabilities. The new high-performance solution now brings the bank’s IT system up to current disaster-proof levels.
