What does it really take to modernize without breaking the bank?
Core replacement is no longer the only, or even best, path to transformation. Today’s leaders are blending modular architecture, middleware, and smart orchestration layers to evolve in place. But modernizing without a massive replatforming isn’t simple, it requires thoughtful sequencing, internal buy-in, and partner alignment.
This session brings together banking execs and infrastructure providers who’ve made real progress without blowing up their systems or budgets. Learn how they phased transformation, avoided the integration trap, and scaled innovation through targeted modernization.
Takeaways:
• Understand how middleware and orchestration enable modernization without disruption.
• Learn how to build a phased transformation roadmap for legacy environments.
• Explore real use cases from banks balancing innovation with operational risk.
