“… rescue data off of the mainframe, in a cloud native, microservice-
based fashion … [to] … significantly reduce the reads on the
mainframe, saving RBC fixed infrastructure costs (OPEX). RBC stayed
compliant with bank regulations and business logic, and is now able to
create new applications using the same event-based architecture.”

“We look at events as running our
business. Business people within
our organization want to be able to
react to events—and oftentimes it's
a combination of events.”
