As an aging mainframe struggled to handle increasing transaction volumes and ongoing expansion, a straightforward "lift and shift" upgrade approach proved inadequate. Sungard Availability Services (Sungard AS) offered a detailed roadmap for both the near and distant future, along with the necessary migration and hosting services, allowing Global Atlantic to transition smoothly and ahead of schedule. Cabot Financial Ireland, a prominent player in consumer credit management, leverages its established application software alongside contact center expertise to provide outsourced credit and collections services to over 40 credit unions throughout Ireland. For this essential service, the company depends on Sungard Availability Services (Sungard AS) to maintain resilience within its IT infrastructure. Now, Cabot is collaborating with Sungard AS to execute a phased migration to the AWS cloud, which will be entirely managed by Sungard AS to ensure seamless support for both its primary and recovery environments. This strategic partnership not only enhances operational efficiency but also positions Cabot for future growth in an increasingly digital landscape.
