Viet A Commercial Joint Stock Bank (Viet A Bank) has just signed a cooperation agreement with FPT Telecom to move the entire data system of this bank from physical data center to FPT HI GIO Cloud cloud computing system of FPT Telecom.
 

Viet A Bank and FPT Telecom representatives attended Vietnam Cloud Computing 2017.
 
Accordingly, from July 22, 2017, Viet A Bank is the first bank in Vietnam to choose the Private Cloud model on FPT HI GIO Cloud's technology platform to store and solve all problems related to this bank's data.
 
The decision to shift the entire data system to Private Cloud cloud computing of FPT Telecom is part of a series of activities to boost investment in IT system of Viet A Bank, which is also a strategy to become one of Vietnam's leading banks of Viet A Bank.
 
This is an important step in linking the leading banks and telecommunications solution providers in the country. This move contributes to creating a smart data platform for the businesses (especially for banks), which ensures the highest level of security and is the foundation for the trend of Digital Banking.
Speaking about the decision to transfer data to the cloud computing system of FPT Telecom, Mr. Nghiem Sy Thang - Director of Viet A Bank Technology Division - Head of Digital Banking Project, one of the leading experts about the information security of the banking industry, has affirmed: "This shift not only meets the trend of information/data management of the banking industry in the current global technology management but also gives Viet A Bank outstanding benefits in many aspects such as investment, equipment, infrastructure, resources, and technology, etc. in order to increase efficiency and provide optimal utilities for customers/service users”.
 
To be specific, when transferring data to FPT HI GIO Cloud platform - the cloud computing system that FPT Telecom cooperated with Internet Initiative Japan (IIJ) for the first time in Vietnam, the bank will achieve the compatible values as follows:
 
The first is high availability. Viet A Bank's cloud computing model has been developed on the basis of FPT HI GIO Cloud technology and integrated all space and time distance, without any risks of interruption of transmission line that banks with wide distribution often encounter.
 
The second is minimizing infrastructure management costs. Compared to building a physical data center right at the bank office as before, the shifting of data to cloud computing helps Viet A Bank save human costs and ground necessary to maintain physical data centers.
 
The third and also the core benefit, is the confidentiality. The entire data system of Viet A Bank is stored at Data Center of FPT Telecom with the most stringent information and safety standards in the present day, according to Tier III international standards - international certificate certified by Uptime Institute (USA). This is the most advanced and prerequisite standard for Data Center service. In addition, Data Center of FPT Telecom is also certified with ISO 9001, ISO 50001 and ISO 27001.
 
With the pioneering step of combining technology infrastructure of FPT Telecom and the bank database of Viet A Bank, Viet A Bank's data center and trading activities will no longer be hindered by the nature physics, ensuring to the highest level that all Viet A Bank's branches, transaction offices and employees throughout the territory of Vietnam are operating continuously, stably and without difference, which brings customers/service users different experiences, as well as improves the value of appropriate and sustainable development of the business.
