SID328: Cloud Adoption in Regulated Financial Services

Macquarie, a global provider of financial services, identified early on that it would require strong partnership between its business, technology and risk teams to enable the rapid adoption of AWS cloud technologies. As a result, Macquarie built a Cloud Governance Platform to enable its risk functions to move as quickly as its development teams. This platform has been the backbone of Macquarie's adoption of AWS over the past two years and has enabled Macquarie to accelerate its use of cloud technologies for the benefit of clients across multiple global markets. This talk will outline the strategy that Macquarie embarked on, describe the platform they built, and provide examples for other organizations who are on a similar journey.
