Postal Savings Bank of China (PSBC) is a leading large state-owned commercial bank with more than one billion accounts and nearly 40,000 outlets, serving more than 600 million individual customers. In response to the rapid changes in the banking sector in the era of digital banking and to counter the increasingly fierce competitions from Fintechs and Challenger Banks alike, PSBC decides to ride the wave of digital transformation and deploy an enterprise architecture based core banking system that is built on open platform and micro-services architecture. The transformation not only improves the efficiency and quality of PSBC’s products and services but also realizing the reactivity to provide customer-centric products and services. The PSBC’s new core banking project is the first project where a large state-owned bank adopts a unitary service model in the core system.
The new generation technology platform implemented by Sunline is the most important technical underlying architecture of the core banking system. It is the most fundamental platform that will directly determine the ability of the core banking system to support the bank’s business development. The technology platform in PSBC’s project adopts the most advanced distributed and microservices architecture, allowing each unit to work independently with autonomy. The flexibility of microservices lets the system expand fast to support the massive transactions and data, comprehensively sustaining PSBC’s business transformation needs with advanced technical architecture.
Sunline also implemented enterprise modeling and standardized analysis process for PSBC’s remittance business to evaluate the performances and optimized the internal and external flows, making the business more efficient and effective.
