Case Study: Produbanco achieves faster, more resilient banking operations with Microsoft SQL Server 2016

One of Ecuador’s largest banks chooses SQL Server 2016 for core financial services

Produbanco, the third-largest bank in Ecuador, faced the challenge of managing rapid growth and a 20 percent annual increase in data. To enhance performance and security across its many customer service channels, the financial institution needed to upgrade its core database infrastructure and required a solution to ensure high availability and real-time data insight. They chose to become an early adopter of Microsoft SQL Server 2016.

Microsoft successfully delivered the solution, enabling the bank to handle 1 million SQL Server transactions per hour and cut disaster-recovery time to under two minutes. The measurable results included a 48 percent reduction in batch-process execution time and ensuring that over 99.5 percent of online banking processes completed in less than one second, greatly improving customer experience. With its new data platform from Microsoft, Produbanco gained better business insight and a future-ready foundation for growth.
