a leading european bank targets 90% cost savings with Zitec

The client, a leading European bank, was struggling with an outdated IT infrastructure that consumed 95% of its annual budget just on maintenance, leaving minimal resources for innovation. To address this challenge, the bank partnered with Zitec to prove that cloud migration could drastically reduce costs and create a more scalable foundation for future growth.

Zitec implemented a Proof of Concept by migrating the bank's core, mobile, and e-banking applications to a containerized Azure Kubernetes environment. This solution demonstrated the potential to reduce operational costs by up to 90% and cut product deployment time by 50%, freeing up significant budget for innovation and setting the stage for a full digital transformation.
