Hogan Core Banking Platform

Hogan X is the next-gen version of Hogan: a high-performance, mainframe hybrid cloud-based core banking system trusted by major financial institutions to manage trillions in deposits. Its reputation is built on decades of proven scalability, reliability and deep integration capabilities. Hogan X enables banks to process high transaction volumes securely and efficiently, supporting mission-critical operations worldwide. With its robust architecture and ability to handle complex banking needs, Hogan X remains the platform of choice for organizations seeking stability, compliance, and future-ready technology.

Through solutions like Hogan X (the latest hybrid cloud-enabled version of Hogan) and Hogan io (a modernization framework for COBOL-based z/OS systems) banks can combine mainframe stability with cloud agility. These frameworks support integration with Java, COBOL, APIs and microservices, enabling banks to adopt new technologies, streamline operations, and deliver digital-first customer experiences. Furthermore, through CoreIgnite, DXC offers a modular modernization path that allows banks to evolve their legacy systems without the need for full replacement, preserving existing investments while providing the flexibility to innovate and adapt to changing market demands.

DXC offers a comprehensive suite of operational services to help banks maximize the value of their Hogan investment. Managed services cover project management, quality assurance, change management and documentation, supporting transitions to agile, cross-functional teams. The Hogan Health Check provides diagnostic assessments and tailored modernization roadmaps to optimize system performance and reduce total cost of ownership. For quality assurance, DXC delivers end-to-end testing integrated with Agile and DevOps workflows, leveraging AI-enabled automation for improved efficiency. Additionally, Hogan Academy provides self-paced, remote learning for developers, analysts and technical specialists, ensuring organizations can scale expertise and maintain high standards across their teams.

Hogan provides real-time access to customer relationships and accounts, enabling banks to offer convenient, unified account management and personalized services. Its robust architecture supports high transaction volumes and automates complex processes such as interest calculations, compliance reporting and risk management. By integrating seamlessly with digital channels and CRM systems, Hogan empowers banks to deliver faster, more reliable services, enhance cross-selling opportunities and improve customer retention — all while maintaining operational resilience and regulatory compliance.

The hybrid cloud capabilities of Hogan X allow banks to combine the reliability of on-premises mainframe infrastructure with the flexibility and scalability of public and private cloud environments. The combination of the capabilities of the IBM z17 with ZOS running Hogan and zLinux running cloud-native workloads gives the nest of both worlds. This approach lets financial institutions capitalize on existing investments while unlocking new efficiencies and innovation. With hybrid cloud enablement, banks can keep sensitive data secure on-premises or in a private cloud, while leveraging public cloud resources for rapid scaling, cost optimization and advanced analytics. Hogan’s architecture supports seamless integration with modern applications, enabling faster time to market for new features, improved operational resilience and enhanced customer experiences — all while maintaining compliance and data security.
