CLEVELAND, Oct. 9, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- KeyCorp (NYSE: KEY)
is continuing its investment in next generation application
management software with the latest capabilities in Kubernetes, an
open-source solution that will assist KeyBank in delivering new
features quicker, more efficiently and more securely for KeyBank
clients through its digital platforms.
KeyBank will collaborate with Google Cloud on their Cloud
Services Platform. Cloud Services Platform brings the benefits of
Kubernetes's open source container orchestration, and Istio's open
source service mesh, to KeyBank's datacenters; making our systems
more reliable, more secure, and delivering new capabilities faster,
with little to no disruption to our clients.
Cloud Services Platform is hybrid cloud software for application
modernization from Google that provides consistent, automated
operations on-premises and in the cloud. It combines Kubernetes and
Istio with Google's infrastructure, security and operations
practices to increase velocity, improve reliability and manage
governance at scale. Cloud Services Platform is extensible through
an open ecosystem.
"We are creating a new kind of bank for our customers, and
Google's creation of Kubernetes and Istio made them the obvious
cloud to collaborate with as we look to bring containerized
applications into our data centers," said Keith Silvestri, Chief Technology Officer.
"Using Cloud Services Platform for our hybrid deployment will be
like having hundreds of Google developers all working to build us
the best platform for delivering modern banking services to our
customers."
