Like many U.S. financial institutions, the bank runs on core infrastructure built for a batch-oriented world. Customers, payment networks and forms of digital money increasingly expect banks to operate 24/7/365.

Replacing the core would have introduced cost, complexity and operational risk. Instead, the bank chose to modernize around its existing infrastructure, building a real-time foundation without risking daily operations.

Digital Twin runs alongside the bank’s existing core as a real-time authorization engine and high-performance ledger. It maintains account balances and keeps processing transactions even when the core is offline or running batch cycles.
