Operational Impact
With Google Cloud, Auka built a powerful, resilient financial services platform that can accommodate the ever-growing volume of mobile transactions not just in Norway but throughout Europe and the rest of the world. In the summer of 2017, Auka won the award for best mobile payments platform in Europe at the CFI Magazine Technology Awards, vindicating its decision to base itself 100% in the cloud. Auka continues to improve and evolve its platform, experimenting with Google’s suite of machine learning tools for predictions and automations as well as Cloud Spanner for globally consistent scalable storage of relational data. Auka is already looking beyond Europe, helping and advising banks worldwide to take advantage of this technology to grow their position in the market. | |
