The Next-Generation Banking Platform

by Jost Hoppermann

with Martha Bennett, Randy Heffner, Ashara Giordanelli, Elena Giovannini


Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

With Forrester's Digital Business Architecture and the emergence of technologies supporting the concept of the banking backbone, next-generation banking platform requirements now have a solid architectural basis. Today, banks can only partially implement the next-generation banking platform — but knowing its shape helps to identify feasible next steps for today's banking platform projects and provides a sound target state architecture for those multiyear road maps aimed at renewing a bank's application landscape.
