We handle very sensitive data. We decided on Elastisys Compliant Kubernetes as it doesn’t lock you into any cloud, is available under European jurisdiction, is built on best practice from the cloud native community and comes pre-configured for all our security and compliance needs, saving us a lot of effort

Northmill

Background: Northmill is a modern bank that is experiencing rapid growth and expanding internationally, operating in Sweden, Finland and Poland.

Challenge: Northmill needs to allow for a high degree of innovation and speed while being bound by strict banking and privacy regulations, including ISO 27001, FFFS2014:5 and GDPR.

Solution: Elastisys helped Northmill select the most cost-effective technical implementations on AWS from a regulatory perspective, identify actionable implementation tasks and perform hands-on implementation. Elastisys also held training and advised from C-level to engineering.

We recently received a banking license, which allows us to penetrate new markets, something we want to do with best in class compliance. We chose Elastisys to help us on this journey, due to their previous experience in regulated industries, in particular in fintech. Their experience helped us achieve compliance, without compromising our culture of agile product delivery.

Klarna

Background: Klarna provides banking and payment solutions for 60 million people and 100 000 stores spread over 14 countries.

Challenge: Klarna required a multi-tenant solution for building and managing services in AWS. Operating in a high compliance environment, a crucial part was to offload as much of the compliance requirements as possible from individual services and hide it behind this multi-tenant service.

Solution: Elastisys built a multi-tenant service with data-layer isolation in AWS, using AWS Cognito, Lambda, DynamoDB and API Gateway. The serverless nature made security updates and similar compliance requirements automatically taken care of by Amazon.

The Elastisys team showed great technical and social skills and quickly understood the problem and the environment. They proactively engaged with other teams and developed a very high-quality solution. I perceived them as very professional and can recommend them unreservedly for any type of engineering project.

Minium (Nasdaq)

Background: Minium, a Cinnober subsidiary today aquired by Nasdaq, provided risk management and back office platform for banks worldwide.

Challenge: Minium required a cost-efficient and highly available infrastructure solution for their microservices architecture. Their DevOps engineers needed a container-based solution to benefit from Immutable Infrastructure and simplified operations.

Solution: Elastisys delivered a high-availability Kubernetes cluster, deployed in AWS, that can automatically handle failure of an entire AWS Availability Zone.

Working with the Elastisys team to accelerate our cloud deployment has been a real success story. The work they’ve done has not only been integral to our delivery but has also been positively validated by other external experts.
