"The deployment of the platform now opens the way to new use cases, particularly in line with the move to cloud strategy initiated by the BPCE group. A first pilot is planned for 2023 in this new ecosystem. This will allow us to reach a different population of developers, profiles accustomed to working with Hadoop environments."

Who they are

Groupe BPCE is one of France’s largest banking groups and a top 10 financial institution in Europe. Formed by the merger of Banque Populaire and Caisse d’Épargne, BPCE operates globally and serves individuals, SMEs, and institutional clients. The group manages a complex ecosystem of systems and processes that must meet the demands of modern banking while remaining compliant, secure, and scalable.

Goal

Replace legacy integration tools and streamline enterprise data delivery

With a decentralized IT environment and legacy ETL tools like ODI and OTIC in place, BPCE needed a modern platform that could reduce technical debt, streamline workflows, and support DevOps practices across its banking network.

Migrate from Legacy Tools
Retire ODI and OTIC tools in favor of a unified platform that supports modern integration patterns and cross-entity collaboration.

Enable CI/CD and DevOps
Automate data deployment processes with GitLab, Jenkins, etc. to improve agility, speed, and governance.

Improve Developer Efficiency
Adopt low-code, reusable templates to reduce manual effort, ensure standardization, and accelerate time-to-value.
