A leading banking and financial domain company has transformed its monolithic (pre-2016) notification system into a robust (cloud native) platform, built using artificial intelligence (AI), while significantly improving user experience and increasing operational performance. The change in platform architecture was completed by transitioning from a traditional MQ Series and Java-based rules engine to a fully modernized (containerized) cloud-native platform built using Kubernetes microservices and utilizing Kafka streaming capabilities and cutting-edge techniques for contextualization and advanced personalization. The result of this transformation was a remarkable 92% reduction in latency, 67% increase in call deflections and record improvement to the Net Promoter Score (NPS). The notification delivery success rate on this new platform is 99.99% and the responsiveness of the system has been validated through comprehensive testing. Furthermore, the project will have substantial financial success with a return on investment of 4.5 months and annual savings of $28.8 million. Plans for the future will include executing a zero-downtime migration from legacy to a composable architecture and adding advanced technologies, such as quantum safe encryption and agentic AI, with the expectation that before 2030 there will be over 50 million card holders using these new technologies from a leading banking and financial domain company. This transformation has already established a leading banking and financial domain company as an industry leader for providing real time customer engagement through a focus on human centered outcomes.
