A gambling and gaming company has achieved 75% in cost-savings with Amazon Web Services (AWS). The return on investment (ROI) it has achieved is incredible and, more importantly, it can be replicated by banks and other financial services organisations at a time when the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) are just around the corner – coming into force on May 2018.

So, now is a good time for banks to think audit their back-up and storage to achieve both cost-savings and regulatory compliance.

The other key challenges include:

  • data locality;
  • bandwidth and data change rate that needs replication to a remote site hosting the cloud;
    privacy

The gambling and gaming company is keeping some of its data on-site and some of it resides in the cloud. To improve the speed at which it can back up and restore its data, the firm has used a data acceleration to reduce the time it takes to back up its data. The less time it takes to back up data, the more it can save financially – and that’s despite growing data volumes. The larger the data volume, the more challenging companies, including banks, find it to move data to and from the cloud.
