Starling Bank Case Study

To provide a banking service, which supports a debit card, their system must work with an organization like Visa or Mastercard that authorize SWIFT. These organizations require physical hardware in place and a viable alternative to any key supplier. Having built their platform from scratch in the cloud, Starling Bank needed to partner with a world class data center.

Starling Bank is engineering the world’s best current account bank. Our strategy is to work with partners who also seek to be the best at what they do; hence we leave the physical infrastructure to Digital Realty.
