For the Cloud Banking solution AgiaraPay uses National Cloud (in the nation) or Local Cloud (at the banks IT-department) server locations to ensure the security as most central banks not allow customer and transaction information to be stored at unknown locations on the internet.
Cloud Banking accesses the banking services via the internet (the ‘Cloud’) rather than using a personal computer software or local branch servers. It allows users to tap into secure networked servers and to access data and applications from anywhere from any device.
Cloud banking and cloud computing is also seen as a subset of grid computing that includes utility computing and other approaches to the use of shared computing resources. Again, this is seen as a reliable, secure and cost effective alternative to local installed bank servers or personal devices handling users’ applications.
The AgiaraPay services are sold as licenses for banks and financial institutions which handle core banking services, transactions and payment services for their customers.
