Brokers
on the trading floor at Deutsche Bank conduct transactions that
can easily exceed a billion dollars over the course of an afternoon.
A highly available, highly secure, and flexible information infrastructure
takes on new meaning when put in this context�especially for those
responsible for building the technology infrastructure to support
transactions of this magnitude.
To ensure
that fast-moving business deals flow uninterrupted, Deutsche Bank
uses EMC Enterprise Storage and software as the foundation of
its highly profitable trading room operations. �A technology
infrastructure,� says Jan Stevens, Deutsche Bank�s Managing Director,
Global Technology Products, �needs to go as fast as the business
needs us to go. We have to be sure that technology never constrains
business growth.�
In fact,
Stevens says, technology needs to be an enabler of change and
growth, something Deutsche Bank understands well. In 1999, the
bank completed its merger with Bankers Trust�a longtime user of
EMC technology�and one of the largest U.S.-based financial institutions.
