Take Back Control of Your Core Banking Infrastructure
Sep 15 2026 | 47 mins

This session tackles a problem most banks, credit unions, and fintechs feel but rarely name: the core banking platform usually isn't the issue, the infrastructure around it is. Tom and Joseph unpack how outdated environments quietly erode performance (slower batch processing, backlogged change requests) long before anything actually breaks, and why disaster recovery plans that look solid on paper often can't survive a real test. They also draw a clear line between what an internal team should own and what belongs with a partner, showing how the right infrastructure model gives banking IT teams back their timeline, their access, and their confidence, without adding a staffing burden.
