The world of Finance is being digitally disrupted across areas such as mobile payments, money transfers, loans, fundraising, and wealth management. Speed of change is critical, and software has become the tip of the spear in this disruption with a new model called microservices, an approach where large applications are broken down into small, loosely coupled and composable autonomous pieces. Join us as our guest speakers Randy Heffner, VP and Principal Analyst at Forrester Research, and Stephen Murphy, CEO at Genesis Global, explain how microservices improve speed of execution, key emerging practices for doing microservices well, and how microservices are enabling disruption in financial services.
