Kenanga Investment Bank Berhad (KIBB) is one of the largest independent investment banks in Malaysia. Malaysia attracts billions of investments, and customers are looking for a reliable bank to help them invest. KIBB is at the forefront of such activity. Our overall IT strategy right now is the promotion of digital transformation and innovation throughout our applications and our infrastructure to support our business needs.
What we are focusing on is to make our applications robust. In particular, this means building resilience throughout our ICT resources.
As an innovative and established home-grown brand, the Group’s digital ambition includes building a robust digital ecosystem that meets the needs of its clients and businesses. KIBB is currently undergoing digital transformation, and we are the first bank to design a new data center network alongside Huawei in Malaysia.
A huge part of ensuring our data center remains top-of-the-range is by enhancing our storage. Huawei’s storage solutions, combined with Huawei Cloud, would be potentially an ideal step in our digital transformation. As we have seen within the sector, customers are showing a great preference for hybrid cloud solutions, and we have spoken with Huawei’s expert consultants on this matter.
Huawei’s DCN solution is a new solution in the market. It uses a spine-leaf network architecture that interconnects switches in a full-mesh topology. A traditional three-layer model consisting of core, distribution and access layers creates longer lead times when things go wrong. The DCN solution actually manages to collapse one tier, leaving it with a higher performance, increased capacity, and a scale-out rather than scale-up design. This simplified architecture is easier for us to install and maintain, and as it is software-defined we can much easier configure our networks. Not to mention, Huawei is always willing to help us resolve any of our more technical network issues.
Beyond this, Huawei’s DCN solution also provides features like the VXLAN and SD-WAN. With all these integrated capabilities, we are highly confident in our overall network quality. We are excited to expand on this success.
