Why Migrate from On-Premise SAP HCM to Cloud Based HXM-SAP SuccessFactors?

Today, it has become a necessity for enterprises to shift their workforce to the cloud, which empowers their employees with relevant experiences, delivers useful data and insights to the leadership team, and works in tandem with the frequently changing needs of the workforce. Adopt advanced human resource management with world class UI and UX to maintain the best #HXM and retain the most loved employees for a long time, says Sailaja Bodula, Business Analyst, Cigniti Technologies.

Why Migrate From On-Premise SAP HCM to Cloud Based HXM-SAP Success Factors?

On-Premise SAP Human Capital Management (HCM) was considered one of the most powerful Human Resource Managements (HRMs) until the relevance and necessity of cloud-based SAP SuccessFactors came into the picture. The two most prominent reasons for the growing popularity of cloud-based (Software as a Service) SaaS applications are (1) changes in the Gen Y and Gen Z workforce at offices, and (2) the developing culture of remote work.

Digital Assurance: Sweeping Away Digital Complexity

Each evolution of technical and digital maturity leads to much more complicated testing, and hence the digital assurance model required is going to be more complicated. And that is the challenge facing nearly every company out there: technology continues to evolve, digital continues to evolve. It is not getting any easier. As a collective society, we continue to push the bounds of what is expected from technology, and there is a direct correlation between raised expectations and the speed and quality at which they are delivered, says Chris Manuel, Vice President, Cigniti Technologies.

Digital Assurance: Sweeping Away Digital Complexity

In the first blog in this series, I introduced the Digital Complexity Paradigm (DCP) – which, broken down in simple terms, attempts to capture the significantly increased complexity and speed at which digital transformation (and evolution) needs to be delivered. That complexity and speed are then compounded by the absolute need for unquestionable quality. In this next blog, we will look at technical complexity as it applies to the DCP.

Accelerating Digital Transformation Through the Cloud

Digital transformation calls for creating newer business models to stay relevant and thrive in a dynamic ecosystem. Enterprises must continuously innovate to stay ahead of the curve, and the cloud is the catalyst that drives innovation. When businesses start to adapt their processes to a digital environment, they require scalability, cost and work efficiency, elasticity, and agility. Though cloud technology offers a plethora of benefits, it’s not an easy task. Engaging a dedicated cloud service provider for your cloud migration project will ease your cloud transition journey.

Accelerating Digital Transformation Through the Cloud

Whether you agree or not, conventional businesses have become redundant by the advent of technologies like Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, IoT and ML. Today, rapidly changing customer needs are forcing enterprises to evolve, adopt and devise strategies where they can surgically strike offers to a segment of few rather than blast a shotgun of offerings to an uninterested many.

Ensuring Assurance for Sophisticated Order Management Systems in Capital Markets

Major markets, such as the United States of America, Hong Kong, the United Kingdom, Japan, Singapore, and Australia, continue to follow the T+2 settlement cycle. However, in different jurisdictions, the talk about moving towards a T+1 settlement cycle is gathering momentum. The new mechanism will have a greater impact on the auction market because if a seller cannot deliver stocks on the settlement day, these shares will come into the auction market, says Raghu Kishore M, Manager Delivery, Cigniti Technologies.

Major markets, such as the United States of America, Hong Kong, the United Kingdom, Japan, Singapore, and Australia, continue to follow the T+2 settlement cycle. However, in different jurisdictions, the talk about moving towards a T+1 settlement cycle is gathering momentum. In February 2021, the United States DTCC (Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation) released a two-year industry roadmap for shortening the settlement cycle for US equities to one business day after the trade is executed (T+1).

Hyper-Personalization: A Key Enabler in the Digital Evolution of Banks

Digital channels are now the dominant banking channels worldwide. As a result, customers are visiting the branches less and using the digital platforms for their banking needs. Due to portability and quick access to features in #banking transactions, Internet banking and mobile banking have become key banking platforms with a huge increase in popularity. Banking institutions provide all the features of online and mobile banking for the customer, and we can use these channels through hyper-personalization based on customer usage and provide a better and more customized solution, says Amar Sindol, Delivery Manager, Cigniti Technologies.

Hyper-Personalization: A Key Enabler in the Digital Evolution of Banks

In recent times, customers are looking for a customized solution for their specific requirements and utilizing the digital features of banking as per their needs. Moreover, banks have realized the economic advantage of personalization which can bring in considerable cost reduction by providing diverse cutting-edge products with AI, ML, and big data capabilities. Banks are now trying to cater to customer personalization while meeting the larger organization goal.

Enhance Testing Focus to Positively Impact Your Digital Drive

Automation is crucial in enabling #digitaltransformation. Digital transformation success calls for increasing quality-at-speed for software-enabled digital experiences. To get there, it is imperative for #enterprises to enhance the delivery capability of their teams. This involves automating much of the testing program. An effective testing program will provide an overall view of all quality metrics. This allows development teams to complete the right mix of automated and manual tests for all digital channels.

A Practical Guide to Chaos Engineering

Modern systems built on cloud technologies and microservices architecture have a lot of dependencies on the internet, infrastructure, and services that you do not have control over. We cannot control or avoid failures in distributed systems, but we can control the impact radius of the failure and optimize the time to recover and restore the systems. This can be achieved only by exercising as many failures as we can in the test lab, thus achieving confidence in the system’s resilience., says Jitendra Nath Lella, Senior Architect, Delivery, Cigniti Technologies.

Cloud Migration Assurance for Digital Payment Applications

The main reason for having digital payment applications in the cloud is that customers can pay from anywhere if they have internet access. The digital payment application to be migrated to the #cloud should run flawlessly in the cloud environment. If migrated and implemented in the correct way, a cloud-based digital payment system will bring added convenience to customers and retailers and provide enhanced data security and reduce maintenance costs, says Payel Ghosh, Associate Principal Consultant, Delivery, at Cigniti Technologies.

Accelerating Business Transformation with IoT Initiatives

While organizations seek to unleash an enigmatic customer experience, building consumer confidence around these applications and experience takes time and effort. Taking advantage of the billions of Internet of Things (IoT) endpoints in 2021 to accelerate their business transformation would need CIOs to rethink their digital strategies and priorities. Read this white paper to know how.
