Hogan hybrid cloud services

Modernize your legacy core banking systems while protecting your technological investment.


Flexible hybrid cloud enablement

A Hogan mainframe hybrid cloud solution allows you to save money and improve cost management by moving heavy up-front CapEx spending toward OpEx. This environment involves one or more public clouds and a private cloud — either hosted private cloud from a third-party provider or managed by your organization on-premises — running modern applications with seamless integration to your bank's core platform running on existing or upgraded mainframes. This is a perfect arrangement for safely and rapidly moving data around in volatile working conditions.

And here’s an important operational and balance-sheet plus point. Mainframe hybrid cloud services allow you to scale capacity in line with fluctuating business developments and consumer preferences while retaining the benefits of your existing mainframe investments.

Hogan hybrid cloud specialists

Over 40 banks and card processors use Hogan as their primary core banking application, which means processing over $5 trillion in deposits, making it one of the largest core banking systems in the world. To ensure the success of progressive mainframe-based core-application modernization, which is key to a bank’s transformation journey, DXC invests deeply in the people who keep our customers' systems operationally resilient — maintaining the core and innovating around it. Our Hogan hybrid cloud experts possess the niche skills and the experience in Hogan banking software to take control and modernize this vital part of your institution's data architecture.

How Hogan hybrid cloud can help


Cardless and digital transactions

Hogan Hybrid Cloud’s combination of reliable core processing and cloud-native digital capabilities gives banks flexibility for innovative payments.

Branch digitalization

In a hybrid cloud context, physical branches become conduits to cloud-powered digital experiences, not islands of legacy systems.

Online documentation

Banks can centralize and modernize their documentation and processes, providing flexible resource access and unified services across environments.

Remote working

Cloud endpoints can securely expose parts of the core banking platform or development tools without requiring direct mainframe logins. Distributed teams can work together when cloud-hosted collaboration platforms (ticketing, source control, CI/CD) are integrated with Hogan systems.

Frequently asked questions

Migrating your Hogan installation to a hybrid cloud allows you to:

  • Enhance business agility and resilience with a faster time-to-market for software updates and new products
  • Unlock funds dedicated to inactive capital equipment, transition from CapEx to OpEx and take advantage of a more transparent and predictable cost structure
  • Boost scalability with virtually unlimited computing resources available on-demand, all while benefiting from a pay-as-you-go cost structure
  • Increase in-house productivity with intuitive, user-friendly, responsive dashboards
  • Meet and exceed customer expectations regarding communication, personalization and the range and efficiency of available digital touchpoints
  • Strengthen existing partnerships by streamlining collaboration and data sharing with partner businesses

Hybrid cloud migration entails the following four challenges:

  • Limited talent pool. Financial services experts are scarce in the local tech talent pool, and you have to compete for their skills. This makes it more difficult to build a best-in-class in-house team without overboard costs.
  • Intense competition. Technology-driven disruptors meet evolving customer demands in a more efficient, user-centric way. This leaves little to no room for shortcomings in hybrid cloud migration.
  • Demand for personalized experiences. Exceptional customer experience today is marked by a high degree of personalization. Delivering it requires breaking data silos that stand in the way of 360-degree customer views.
  • Seamless integration. Building a best-of-breed software stack that also powers highly personalized experiences requires integrating disparate solutions in a single ecosystem.
