In 2020, the Covid 19 pandemic had a huge impact on most financial organisations. Which resulted in a major shift in the working culture of most firms. Not only within the capital markets, but on a wider scale. After years of resistance by many companies, in allowing staff to work from home. Remote working suddenly became the norm. In 2021 a number of Companies have already made the decision to continue home working, or have opted to introduce a hybrid operation. Utilisation of today’s technologies to enable remote working has made this possible.
Cloud is a central component in achieving a working operational capability and capacity, within a centralised or a decentralized environment. Solving operational needs in a secure environment, enabling resilience, business continuity and helping to meet regulatory compliance. However, with decentralisation, there is a requirement for increased bandwidth. Which can be provided by the increased capacity delivered by 5G. But this also brings the need for improved cybersecurity.
In this podcast Alasdair Hodge, a leading cloud engineer and expert in architecting cloud based solutions, discusses in easy to understand language, these issues as well as;
