VPBank has launched its 'Next Generation of Data Analytics Platform', a strategic initiative to build and optimise data analytics.

The platform will empower the bank with advanced tools to enhance business operations, solve business challenges through data-driven insights, and transition towards a data-driven enterprise.

TechX will lead the effort by designing a comprehensive significant data architecture for the entire bank, establishing the infrastructure for this next-generation data analytics platform. The initiative includes the migration and modernisation of data pipelines and the restructuring and enhancement of the data warehouse into a reusable model, which will significantly reduce data analysis time. By leveraging the robust capabilities of AWS and Databricks, the project also aims to develop new data-driven products that meet in-depth analytics requirements, support business decision-making, and enable next-gen AI/ML applications.
