SunTrust Bank has gone live with ACI communication services of ACI Worldwide, a global provider of electronic payments software and solutions.
The bank has opted for ACI Worldwide’s services to bring its ATM network into alignment with its primary communication infrastructure and ensure its ATM processing environment is scalable to manage its growing transaction volumes.
James Bone, VP of EDS ATM development at SunTrust, said: “The consolidation of servers and increased transaction volumes within the enterprise required highly-available, extremely fast connectivity. With ACI’s HPR/IP solution and IBM’s System z Enterprise Extender we exceeded throughput requirements while reducing both response time and demand on system resources. ”
Ralph Dangelmaier, president, global markets and services at ACI Worldwide, said: “Connectivity and communications within payments systems are as essential as the hardware and software the institution chooses, and all too often that connectivity can become the weakest link in the chain. The bank has been a long-standing customer of ACI and we were delighted to work with the team to support this project.”
