Fintech-oriented clouds
The GigaCloud infrastructure is a reliable and secure basis for the effective functioning of fintech companies.
The cloud allows hi-tech companies to securely provide and simplify access to financial services such as money transfers, payments, investing, big data analysis, etc. And, most importantly, to securely store the personal and payment data of your users.- Compliance with the requirements of the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) and the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Board (PCI DSS)
- Flexibility and fault tolerance
- OpEx instead of CapEx
Why does fintech need a cloud?
- Security. Fintech companies collect and analyse large volumes of data. The servers used to process this data must be protected in accordance with the requirements of the NBU and PCI DSS.
- Fault tolerance. The operation of fintech companies is very vulnerable to downtime, so the IT infrastructure must run uninterrupted.
- Flexibility. To introduce new services, it is necessary to quickly scale up the infrastructure, especially during peak loads.
- Equipment. Servers for critical IT systems wear out and become obsolete. Because of this, the costs of maintaining or updating them are growing.
- Hosting abroad. Due to the unstable situation, a cloud provides additional fault tolerance to critical services. Provided that PCI DSS certification is not required.
Depending on the size of your fintech company and its goals, we suggest hosting your IT infrastructure in a public or private cloud with PCI DSS, built on the VMware technology stack.
A public cloud is a universal IaaS service used to transfer IT infrastructure or part of it to the cloud.
Benefits:
- You can increase or decrease the volume of computing resources as needed.
- All customer resources are isolated from each other.
- VM disk encryption can be configured through OS functions.
- Backup copies can be created and a backup platform can be built.
- 24/7 technical support, SLA 99.99%.
- Payment in national currency, clear and intuitive pricing policy.
A private cloud is a physically isolated virtual infrastructure with exclusive access, increased performance and security.
Benefits:
- Personal equipment in a secure data centre.
- Resources are completely isolated.
- VM disk encryption can be configured through the vSphere virtualisation functions.
- Backup copies can be created and a backup platform can be built.
- A hybrid infrastructure can be built.
- 24/7 technical support, SLA 99.99%.
- Payment in national currency, clear and intuitive pricing policy.
The cloud infrastructure is hosted in the data centre that has been certified according to the PCI DSS information security standard. Compliance with the standard means that the payment data of our customers (as well as the data of our customers’ customers) and their transactions are protected according to the international standard of payment systems.
