Fintech - What actually fuels the banks? - Core banking Solutions

Among the top players in Fin Tech, T24, swizz core banking solution developed by Temenos is at the list of top 10. T24 is a customer centric application model which is designed in a most modular way and is capable of running in a scalable architecture. T24 has more than 50+ core banking modules that leverages the banks and turns the financial institutions into a digital market place. T24 powers more than 2000+ banks across 150 countries. T24 is adopted by about 50 top banks worldwide. Through the continuous development and continuous innovation, Temenos has developed a most sophisticated core banking platform.

A bit technically expressed!

The core banking platform is written on Info Basic language. Wondering, how 20 years old programming language made Temenos, a leading Fin Tech player in the market? Though the core banking solutions are written on Basic, it is converted to C and Java and the respective object files and byte codes are obtained from the most intelligent native application frameworks developed by Temenos. T24 runs on TAFC and TAFJ i.e. Temenos Application Framework C and Java. TAFj platform is introduced in 2010 with the limited set of functionalities, whereas TAFc is the traditional framework used by Temenos for last 1.5 decades and it is described often as the most sophisticated platform. Even though this is used for last 20 years, TAFc might be deprecated in future. TAFJ framework has now the capacity to do a lot more than TAFc. Continuous efforts and developments are being carried out on TAFj. TAFj is improved tremendously in each release.

T24 has 6 frameworks which allows the core banking solution to deliver a rich experience to the users. Interaction frameworks handles the connection between T24 and external world. It helps in delivering the mobile banking and Internet banking solutions to customers. Integration framework, handles all the events and it sends and accepts the response to from T24. Platform framework, which is TAFc and TAFj delivers the smooth banking solutions. Component framework, provides encapsulation, adds a layer of security to the code. Data framework helps in managing the data of banks. Since there are trillions of transactions every day, system should be optimized regularly to deliver first class performance. It has the capability to reduce the production database size by 50%. Design framework, separates the design time and run time. It helps in designing own customised version of applications. Allows users to create enquires and composite screens to meet the requirement.

One Software One Implementation

T24 serves for about 500 million customers. One software is capable of running in different geographical areas at different time zones. Banks can implement a server in Antarctica and can operate in all the six other continents. The most versatile and robust software that makes the most profitable banks around the globe.

How does the future look like?

The product is continuously evolving. A drastic code change is made to provide restricted access to the software components by the external system. This makes this software the most secure core bank solution from the ground. Component framework encapsulates the code and prevents the data leak, allowing secure one-way access. The product is continuously analysed by the team of experts for various business conditions, and numerous bug bashes happen every day.

Soon, T24 will be powered with a new browser interface capable of integrating third party apps seamlessly with the real time updates. Even tweets can be integrated in to T24. The live reports will be displayed at the home page and a search bar with extra ordinary functionalities will be made available. Just by typing free text in the search bar, will extract all the relevant data available from the database.

How to get 5GB instantly in seedr?

Seedr is a torrent caching site which provides 2GB of caching for free. For those who are not aware of what the torrent is?  Torrent is a peer to peer communication protocol (P2P) for file sharing. It was introduced in the mid of 2001 for decentralizing the file sharing in this real world. How the files are shared via torrent? Files are uploaded to servers as we do traditionally but the interesting part comes here, these files can be downloaded only via torrent client like Bit torrent, µtorrent, Vuze or you can use any other clients available in the market. Just do a google search to find all the available clients for downloading files.  Why they are restricting the download to clients? Because, the concept here is each computer acts as a server, once you start the download, the client will start uploading the data. Someone on the internet will download the same file based on the data you upload, this process is called seeding, thus decentralizing the data and r...

Hello World - Getting Started with T24

Are you looking to develop great modules and local services for T24? This is the perfect place to start with. Let’s start from the basics. The core banking platform, T24 is developed with INFOBASIC code. This is the proprietary language of Temenos. T24 has the unique compiler to convert the BASIC code to object files with TAFc (Temenos Application Framework c) platform. An another flavour TAFj (Temenos Application Framework java), converts the BASIC to bytecode making it capable to run on any device with the Java runtime installed. The BASIC code remains same for both TAFc and TAFj Platform. Enough Intro! Let’s say hello to this world, How the syntax of this basic program looks like, PROGRAM program_name all the basic statements reside inside this block END Now, it is right time say hello, PROGRAM HELLO                 CRT “Hello World” END Yah, we did that. But, how to r...

Decision making statements - T24

As a programmer, it is essential for you to make your program to work better in all the cases. So, based on the real-time data, you have to decide how the program should work. So, it is important to take decision. Consider a simple case where you want to print the number provided by the user at runtime is even or odd. How to handle that in programs? Decision making statements comes in to play. So, what is the syntax and how to use that? IF condition THEN                 This block will execute when the if condition is satisfied or validated to true. END This is the syntax of the simple IF block. Ok. If the condition is not satisfied, then what will happen. I need to do something when IF condition is failed. How to handle that? ELSE block should be introduced. Here is the syntax, IF condition THEN               ...
