HSBC signs multi-year deal with CloudBees

CloudBees has been selected by HSBC as its software delivery platform provider to standardise software delivery for over 23,000 developers globally, supporting the bank to provide faster, easier, and more secure banking to its 40 million customers. With CloudBees, the international bank will establish a unified end-to-end system of record for deploying software into production.

HSBC is going to digitise the bank and innovate faster to improve the customer experience while prioritising security and compliance. The agreement includes all components of the CloudBees platform including continuous integration, continuous delivery, release orchestration, and feature management capabilities.

HSBC operates a hybrid cloud environment, both off- and on-premise, necessitating the need to simplify and unify software release automation across the entire global organisation and provide governance and audit oversight of high-frequency deployments.

HSBC selected CloudBees because of its comprehensive and extensible platform that can integrate with its software delivery tools, minimizing disruption and allowing them to maximize existing software tool investments, thus enabling a best-of-breed approach.

“We are digitizing the bank and innovating faster to improve the customer experience while prioritizing security and compliance. We’ve chosen CloudBees because standardization and automation across our entire software delivery system will enable our developers to get new digital products and services into our customers’ hands quickly and securely,” said Ian Haynes, CTO shared services and cloud at HSBC.

“CloudBees offers us a powerful platform for the capabilities we need while making it easy for us to have one unified platform that includes all the other tools we leverage. That is a key advantage for CloudBees.”
