Enterprises are accelerating their digital transformation journey to reinvent themselves and stay relevant in a changing world of customer’s expectations, fueled by advancements in digital technologies. In India, the digital revolution is witnessed through the fast growing Fintech ecosystem and the rise of digital payments such as IMPS, RTGS, ACH, UPI and other newer methods (like Paynow, Paylater, Government e-vouchers etc.) which has paved the way for financial inclusion. For enterprises, specifically in the BFSI and Fintech industries, customer-first, digital-first and AI-first are emerging to be the key mantras.
With this accelerated pace of digital transformation and the drive to deliver superior user experience at scale, enterprise IT operations and the digital infrastructure are growing more complex. The enterprise IT landscape is characterised by a web of distributed transactions with fragmented data sets spanning heterogeneous touchpoints from hybrid cloud, multi-tier applications, micro services to infrastructure. Enterprises today are replete with silo-ed tools and lack of a holistic view into every user transaction or business journey. IT operations and business are under constant pressure in keeping the IT infrastructure up and running, tracking every transaction failure proactively and providing diagnostics and remediation in real-time. Any failure or delays add to the customer dissatisfaction levels with a potential revenue loss.
As estimated by RBI, by the year 2025, India is expected to see 1.5 billion transactions in the digital mode, worth Rs. 15 trillion a day. This estimated astronomical growth in transaction volumes will only cause further strain to the already complex digital infrastructure, mounting pressures on enterprises especially in the BFSI and Fintech space.
Enterprises need complete visibility with business insights in real-time
In a digitally-charged world, enterprises need to have complete visibility of business journeys, a view alike to what their customer has. Having this view with insights and alerts delivered in real-time, helps enterprises to respond proactively than react to any issues, and predict and prevent failures to deliver superior customer experience. This eases the pressure on the IT operations and business teams, freeing their time and effort to focus on delivering newer revenue generating capabilities.
Additionally, the transaction analytics that can be delivered by harnessing the vast trove of data within an enterprise can help improve their operations and provide strategic benefits.
Most importantly, to keep up with the rising digital transaction volumes, enterprises need to have the agility to scale-up in real-time to meet the growing demands without having to go to the drawing board, every time.
