Uninterrupted Trust in Banking: Building the Data Infrastructure of the Future

In the banking sector, data forms the backbone of customer trust, regulatory compliance, and business continuity. Due to mobile banking transactions, credit card payments, digital archives, and regulatory requirements, the volume of data in the financial sector is growing exponentially every day. Given today’s customers’ expectation of 24/7 uninterrupted service, even a system outage lasting just a few minutes can result in financial losses amounting to millions of liras and critical damage to a bank’s reputation. In this dynamic environment, banks face the imperative to ensure uninterrupted access, keep soaring data storage costs under control, and build cyber resilience—particularly against the increasing number of ransomware attacks in recent years.

To help financial institutions overcome these critical challenges, KoçSistem’s deep expertise in financial system integration has been combined with Huawei’s OceanStor Dorado data storage solutions, which have proven themselves in thousands of financial institutions worldwide. This powerful partnership brings together high availability, disaster recovery, advanced backup, and intelligent data management capabilities under one roof, creating a solid foundation for banks on their digital transformation journey.

The implemented architecture is designed to ensure the uninterrupted flow and complete security of data traffic. Thanks to the Huawei Active-Active architecture, engineered with KoçSistem’s expertise, even if a physical failure or emergency occurs at one of the data centers, all data traffic is automatically redirected to the other center without customers noticing. The system’s advanced data immutability and secure snapshot technologies instantly protect critical data, ensuring complete access security against ransomware and external cyber threats.

The tangible benefits achieved through the implementation of KoçSistem and Huawei OceanStor solutions have transformed the data infrastructure from a cost burden into a strategic center of efficiency:

• 99.9999% (6 Nines) Business Continuity: Zero data loss and guaranteed uninterrupted service during planned or unplanned outages thanks to the Active-Active architecture.

• Up to 60% Storage Cost Savings: Maximum capacity efficiency in physical storage space thanks to intelligent data deduplication and compression technologies.

• 3x Faster Data Recovery: Significant reduction in data recovery time during potential disasters thanks to instant detection of ransomware and immutable Snapshot protection.

“Trust in banking is built not only on the financial products offered, but also on a seamless, secure, and flexible data infrastructure operating behind the scenes.”

With its mission to be a “trusted technology partner” and a “leader in digital transformation,” KoçSistem continues to meet the financial sector’s current data security and business continuity needs while confidently preparing organizations for tomorrow’s exponentially growing data loads and digital transformation goals.
