About the Series:
In this series, Celent interviews a diverse set of service providers, ranging from hosting services and infrastructure provides to platforms and consultants. We want to give an FI a sense of what a company offers, how it distinguishes itself, and what its perspective is on where an institution should focus its cloud efforts today. We’re intentionally non-evaluative in these interviews, incidentally; other Celent formats analyze and assess particular solutions. The format is straightforward: an interview with the cloud company lasting 20-30 minutes. While the full conversation is available only to Celent clients, any registrant can view a short introduction. These interviews let FIs get a sense of how a company thinks and what it offers today; these perspectives can then inform the institution’s cloud strategy.
