Over the last decade, the rise of cloud adoption in financial services (FinServ) has prompted a need for technological solutions capable of addressing industry-specific use cases. The increasing volume and complexity of data, combined with the demands of security and regulatory compliance, explain why FinServ organizations are turning to AI facilitators like graph technology.
Neo4j AuraDB on Google Cloud provides graph-powered AI to today’s forward-looking FinServ organizations. By deploying cloud-based graph technology, FinServ organizations have the chance to optimize their IT infrastructure and solve their most intractable data challenges.
In this 45-minute webinar, Antoine Larmanjat, Technical Director, Office of the CTO at Google Cloud and Dr. Jim Webber, Chief Scientist and CTO Field Ops at Neo4j will discuss:
- The top three challenges facing the FinServ industry
- Key considerations for building an effective cloud platform
- FinServ use cases involving graph technology and AI/ML
