CNS Cloud Migration and Managed Services platform, allows businesses to avoid the expense and the complexity of buying, implementing, and managing infrastructure
The leading stock market and investment brokerage firm of UAE, International Securities, a subsidiary of International Holding Company, has become the first brokerage firm in the UAE market to be completely transformed into cloud. The project has been delivered completely by CNS while both organisations will continue their partnership for managing the entire cloud platform.
CNS Cloud Migration and Managed Services platform, allows businesses to avoid the expense and the complexity of buying, implementing, and managing infrastructure. With an instant state of the art computing infrastructure, clients can scale up and down on demand and achieve distinct IT outcomes with greater security, availability, and speed of delivery at lower cost and optimising their performance.
Specializing in equities and derivatives, International Securities is a brokerage firm headquartered in Abu Dhabi and is listed on Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange, Dubai Financial Market and NASDAQ Dubai. While the undertaking of this project was impressive due to its scale and complexity, what makes it most notable is the seamless and secure transition CNS achieved. In the early stages of the tender application, a ZERO-downtime and ZERO-latency promise was given and realised, thanks to CNS’ team for their unique capabilities to support the project from design stage into successful delivery and the project being live now.
Ayman Hamed, CEO International Securities said: “There is no doubt this is an important milestone in International Securities journey, the Cloud transformation is just a first step toward building better and secure journey for our clients, and the fact we were the first brokerage firm in the UAE to shift to cloud platform give us an edge ahead of the competition. CNS teams were successful in delivering the required solution without interruption in the business which gives us confidence to continue the partnership”.
