Case Study: Barclays achieves greater resilience and process visibility with Camunda

Barclays scales to tens of millions of daily transactions with Camunda

Barclays, a major global bank, faced significant challenges in its post-trade operations due to costly and inflexible legacy systems. These systems were difficult to maintain, scale, and adapt to new regulations like the T+1 settlement rule, leading to inefficient exception handling and a lack of process visibility. To modernize its technology landscape and achieve greater resilience, Barclays turned to Camunda and its Camunda 8 platform for a solution.

By implementing Camunda's process orchestration platform, Barclays decomposed its monoliths into microservices and used Camunda to manage the entire trade lifecycle. This solution provided enhanced control, visibility, and centralized exception handling. The results for Barclays included dramatically improved system resilience, the ability to scale to process tens of millions of transactions daily, and streamlined compliance. Camunda enabled Barclays to modernize its infrastructure, reduce maintenance costs, and prepare for future regulatory changes.
