Financial services on AWS

Banking platforms only scale when the bank owns the architecture the regulator approves.

Most BFSI cloud programs stall because the regulator wants one architecture and the product team wants another. We build the one that satisfies both, in your AWS account, with audit trail per PR.

What Financial Services actually moves on.

Real engagements, real numbers. Where Armakuni has already shipped in this vertical.

The four problems every banking modernization runs into before it ships.

We have shipped these on AWS before. Here is how each one breaks, and how we fix it.

25-year-old core systems no engineer wants to touch.

VB6, Citrix, COBOL, mainframe. Every modernization attempt stalls at the same wall: tightly coupled architecture, no AWS strategy that addresses infrastructure and product simultaneously.

Data residency is a hard line, not a preference.

Canadian, EU, and APAC sovereignty rules turn every migration plan into a compliance exercise. Most partners retrofit residency. We build it in from day one.

Manual fraud rules at scale.

Analysts maintaining business rules in spreadsheets while transaction volume projects 10x growth. Headcount becomes the only growth lever, until it stops being one.

Contact centres that cannot answer questions about your own products.

CRM, claims, policy, and loyalty in four windows. A 10-second customer request becomes 3 minutes of agent time. Every refund or eligibility check is a human cycle.

How Armakuni shows up in Financial Services.

Not every offering applies in this vertical. Here are the ones that fit, and the angle we take with each.

Modernization with AI
See offering →

BFSI modernization is rarely a clean rewrite. It is a 25-year-old core, a regulator watching, and a product team that needs new features shipped this quarter. The AK Way runs the AI tooling against the foundation that makes it safe: test coverage, clean architecture, observability, audit trail per PR.

  • AWS MAP Assess for VB6, mainframe, or Citrix-bound cores
  • Portfolio Compass to price tech debt for the CFO
  • Continuous modernization subscription for ongoing patching
AI Transformation

Production GenAI in financial services is not a chatbot. It is fraud-rule generation with audit trails, document extraction with PII excluded at query level, and Bedrock invocations that satisfy InfoSec without a six-month review. Bedrock AgentCore deployed in your AWS account, under your IAM, with bounded actions.

  • GenAI fraud rule optimization on Bedrock with full audit trail
  • PDF-to-JSON insurance form extraction at production volume
  • Agentic underwriting assist with human approval gates
Amazon Connect

Voice in BFSI is regulated, recorded, and revenue-bearing. Migrations off Genesys, Avaya, or Cisco need real-time fraud signals, sentiment, and CRM context delivered before the agent picks up. AI-augmented routing and post-call compliance summaries that an auditor can actually use.

  • Genesys to Amazon Connect migration with dual-running discipline
  • Real-time fraud signals into Connect during call routing
  • Automated TCPA, FINRA, and CMS disclaimer enforcement

Risk, compliance, and customer 360 all need the same governed data layer. Snowflake-to-Redshift, multi-tenant cost attribution by customer, and pipelines that satisfy a regulator without slowing the analyst.

  • Snowflake to Amazon Redshift migration with cost attribution
  • Privacy-preserving data clean rooms for partner collaboration
  • Real-time fraud feature stores on AWS Glue and Redshift

Once production is live, BFSI does not get to take a holiday. 24x7 ownership, on-call discipline through enrollment windows, and DORA metrics that show the auditor that change failure rate is actually trending down.

  • 24x7 AWS Connect operations through enrollment and AEP
  • PHI-grade DevOps with PR audit trails and signed releases
  • Drift detection and policy-as-code across regulated environments
