Case Study: a major global bank transforms big data infrastructure with VAST Data

Top 10 Global Bank Transforms Big Data Infrastructure

A top 10 global bank was facing significant challenges with its complex and expensive Cloudera Hadoop infrastructure, which consisted of nearly 100 siloed clusters. These data silos hindered comprehensive analytics and led to poor resource utilization and high costs. The bank needed a modern solution to consolidate its environment and support new data pipelines and future AI processing. They chose the VAST Data Platform to address these issues.

The VAST Data solution consolidated the bank's multiple data lakes into a single, high-performance S3 platform. This implementation resulted in a 3x performance improvement and an 80% reduction in required capacity due to data reduction. The bank achieved substantial cost savings on licensing and hardware, a 10x reduction in data center space, and a 4x improvement in asset utilization. VAST Data provided the bank with a future-ready infrastructure, simplifying management and positioning them for advanced AI and analytics initiatives.
