Reinventing Financial Data Analytics on AWS
Performing sophisticated data management and analytics can create a critical advantage in financial markets, but doing so with speed and scale requires significant time and resources. Goldman Sachs is addressing this challenge by building a cloud-native, modular, and integrated collection of services to enable innovation in financial data analytics. The bank rearchitected its proprietary data and analytics capabilities using AWS to make it easier to discover, combine, and analyze data in minutes.
One of the main focuses for us is data management. It’s critical to everything we do in financial services. We’ve been re-platforming our core data architecture onto AWS, enabling us to deploy at scale, take advantage of the latest cloud technologies, and really increase the speed and scale that we can operate our business. AWS allows us to achieve the kind of business velocity that we can’t achieve on premises."
