Case Study: Current achieves scalable, customer-centric banking with MongoDB and Google Cloud

Current builds customer-centric banking for 4 million customers with MongoDB

Current, a financial technology company, faced the challenge of breaking through the limitations of traditional, account-driven banking systems to build customer-centric financial products. Their goal was to create a flexible, modern platform that could handle diverse transaction types without the data silos of legacy infrastructure. To achieve this, they partnered with vendor MongoDB and utilized MongoDB Atlas.

MongoDB provided a fast, flexible solution with its document model and multi-document ACID transactions, which were vital for maintaining data integrity. By implementing MongoDB Atlas on Google Cloud, Current built its proprietary Core banking platform with an event-driven architecture. The solution enabled Current to reduce total cost of ownership and pushbutton-scale its platform to meet demand with zero operational intervention, successfully delivering an ecosystem of accessible banking services to millions of customers.
