Application Modernization: On the Path to Digital Transformation

In our “there’s an app for that” environment, businesses need to offer their customers anywhere, anytime, any device access to engage with customers, suppliers, and employees. However, critical business logic in legacy applications is often trapped in on-premises datacenters, limiting access in today’s multi-cloud, multi-vendor world.

This BattleCard looks at ways business-critical legacy applications can be freed from their data center roots, and how to develop a plan for re-factoring or re-platforming tried-and-true code to embrace a business’ digital transformation and become more cloud-savvy

Experts Share Tactics to Help Financial Services Organizations

According to PWC, attacks on financial institutions grew 130% last year. And in a recent outage at a regional bank, equipment failure led to $15 million in lost revenue and another $5 million in fee waivers and associated costs. In addition to the raw cost of an incident, financial organizations also face the risk of exposed customer information, regulatory fines, loss of trust and impact to stock prices.

In the webinar, Minimizing Data Disruptions Through Business Continuity Planning, our experts will:

  • Define the scope of data continuity, including disaster recovery and mitigation.
  • Discuss common causes of service interruptions.
  • Show you how to identify the right data continuity solution for your organization.
  • Define tiers of disaster recovery, including multi-tenant DR and full-featured solutions.
  • Share strategies for handling complexity and other DR issues.

An effective business continuity strategy can provide immense value for your organization — better planning would have saved that regional bank $20 million and a lot of dissatisfied customers.

eBook – Prescription for Disruption

Healthcare organizations across the care continuum, from hospitals and health systems, to health insurers, to life sciences companies, must digitally transform in order to address legislative and market disruption.

Driving digital transformation in healthcare requires connectivity across an ever-increasing number of applications, data and devices. Because of this, connectivity has emerged as a bottleneck that slows the development of new applications and the adoption of new technologies.

In response, leading healthcare organizations have adopted API-led connectivity, which eliminates this connectivity bottleneck and enables 2-5X IT project delivery.

Download this eBook to learn:

  • How leading healthcare organizations like Sutter Health, Premera Blue Cross and Hologic are leveraging API-led connectivity to accelerate IT project delivery speed.
  • How APIs can be used to address the unique business and IT challenges faced by health systems, health insurers and life sciences companies.
  • How MuleSoft’s out-of-the-box API designs, implementations and connectors can accelerate the adoption of API-led connectivity.
