Case Study: Atom Bank achieves secure, scalable cloud banking with Looker

Atom bank Empowering a digital-only bank to transform the way people handle their finances

Atom Bank began modernizing its banking stack to move core systems to the cloud, starting with its digital mortgages website and then redesigning its broader infrastructure for a microservices-based model. The bank needed a secure, scalable, low-disruption way to rebuild its core platform while improving performance and supporting a seamless customer experience.

Looker helped Atom Bank use Google Cloud-based data and cloud-native tools to support the new architecture, including real-time data management, stronger monitoring, and easier scaling through Kubernetes-based systems. The result was a fully cloud-based banking stack with higher speeds, smoother performance, and the ability to shift the whole business to remote work within three weeks during COVID-19, while enabling sustainable growth and improved security.
