The demand for advanced, reliable, and secure banking services has never been higher, but only 18% of financial institutions feel confident in their ability to scale digital solutions, and many financial institutions remain tethered to traditional database providers like Oracle, facing restrictive licenses, escalating costs, and dwindling adaptability. With over 12 million customers worldwide, BMO has committed to a digital-first mindset — and Postgres is at the center of their transformation journey.
Faced with the rising cost of an underwhelming legacy infrastructure, this world-leading provider of powder metal materials, components, and solutions decided to migrate its business intelligence systems to a more scalable, cost-effective solution. By leveraging the inherent flexibility and scalability of PostgreSQL and EDB’s advanced features, GKN was able to optimize its legacy application code, improve overall system performance, and unlock new capabilities while generating significant cost savings.
