Microsoft at SIBOS 2009

September 14-18, 2009, Hong Kong

This epic struggle explains why we make what we make and do what we do. What gets us out bed every day is the prospect of creating pathways through walls. To start a dialogue between hundreds of devices, billions of people and a world of ideas. To connect all of us, through our digital lives, to each other. This is more than software: it's an approach to life. An approach dedicated to engineering the absence of anything that might stand in the way of life. Today, more than one billion people worldwide have Windows, which is just a way of saying we have each other.

Driving Thought Leadership and Innovation in Payments

Never before has innovation been more important to the global payments community. Your organization requires innovative technology and solutions to address the global economic challenges we face today. You need tools to provide more connected experiences - for you and your customers.

At Sibos 2009 Conference, the premier Payments event, Microsoft and our partners presented ideas to fuel profit with innovative thinking. We shared solutions designed to change your world and help you live it without walls, securely.

The Microsoft platform can enhance your mission critical payments business by saving costs and driving revenue through improved operational management and productivity while creating a new level of innovation.

BizTalk Server

Biztalk Server

Financial institutions are faced with a daunting challenge-myriad applications and systems that need to be integrated with customers, partners, and external financial networks. Unfortunately, these financial institutions can no longer afford integration projects with long delivery cycles and drawn-out returns. BizTalk Accelerator for SWIFT (A4SWIFT) extends the BizTalk Server environment to provide the most comprehensive, reliable, and secure delivery of financial messaging using the SWIFT format and network for customers in banking, capital markets, payments, and corporate finance.

Core Infrastructure

Core Infrastructure

Microsoft infrastructure solutions are comprised of integrated technologies with familiar user interfaces, which simplify the task of managing the IT infrastructure, and are supported by a wealth of tools, guidance, training and trusted partners. These solutions help customers reduce operational costs, improve security and availability, and more quickly enable new business scenarios.

FAST

FAST

People need information to act. Customers need to find a product before they can purchase it. Employees need facts to make decisions. Enterprise search connects people to information so they can take action.

Financial Services firms generate more information of timely importance and broad interest than almost any other industry. Yet they are challenged to gather the most relevant subset of the information needed at any given moment. FAST enables Financial Services firms to transcend information boundaries without changing their underlying infrastructure. This is especially important as they shift towards a more client-centric focus in order to better compete in the changing marketplace.

Microsoft Surface

Surface

Surface, Microsoft's first surface computer, represents a fundamental change in the way we interact with digital content, breaking down traditional barriers between people and technology. Surface provides effortless interaction with digital content, enabling users to actually grab data with their hands and move information between objects with natural gestures and touch.
