GBase Joins Hands with Kylinsec and Tongfang SoftBank to Release a Joint IT Application Innovation Solution for Bank Core Business Systems

Published on 2023-05-24

Financial IT application innovation is advancing rapidly, making it imperative to strengthen independent innovation in the underlying technologies of financial information systems. Banks, as the main force in financial IT application innovation, are accelerating and deepening their construction. To meet the dual demands of digital transformation and IT application innovation development of banks and other financial institutions, GBase (General Data Technology Co., Ltd.) has deepened cooperation with Hunan Kylinsec Information Technology Co., Ltd. (Kylinsec) and Dalian Tongfang SoftBank Technology Co., Ltd. (Tongfang SoftBank) to jointly release a joint IT application innovation solution for bank core business systems. This solution completes full-stack IT application innovation compatibility adaptation and performance optimization across databases, operating systems, and core business systems, providing strong support for enhancing the security and stability of financial IT architecture and digital construction amid the IT application innovation wave.

Components of the Joint Solution

The joint IT application innovation solution for bank core business systems released by GBase, Kylinsec, and Tongfang SoftBank is built upon GBase databases, Kylinsec operating system, and Tongfang SoftBank's core banking system:

Database Access Layer: Uses GBase database products. GBase 8s is a centralized transactional database capable of handling hundreds of terabytes of data storage and thousands of concurrent requests. GBase 8c is a distributed transactional database that meets scalability requirements for massive data volumes and high-concurrency scenarios.

Operating System Layer: Kylinsec OS provides a secure, self-controlled foundation for the solution. It is a commercial distribution based on the openEuler community, fully inheriting all functionalities and ecosystem capabilities of openEuler, with high security, high reliability, strong real-time performance, and flexible customization options.

Application Layer: Tongfang SoftBank's core banking system RunningCore adopts a microservices architecture, built on the company's proprietary distributed technology platform RunningDAS. It is divided into different subsystems based on business functions, each deployed as an independent microservice, and comes with supporting development and operation tools.

Value of the Joint Solution

Security and Reliability:

The solution achieves full-stack localization of servers, operating systems, databases, and core banking applications, ensuring financial information security and providing financial institutions with a secure and reliable integrated localized core banking solution.

High Performance:

Leveraging the underlying IT application innovation architecture of 'database + operating system' and distributed technology, core system performance is significantly improved, fully meeting the demands of massive data and high concurrency in the internet era. Verified with a customer base of 50 million, the solution achieves fast response times: complex transactions take no more than 80ms, and simple transactions under 30ms.

Stable Operation:

The joint solution has been validated for application stability under high concurrency, running continuously for 48 hours without anomalies and with stable resource utilization. When some nodes of servers/databases/applications are abnormally terminated, system operation is unaffected with zero data loss.

Flexible Scalability:

The most reliable and stable solution is provided based on actual data volume and concurrency, delivering optimal performance in various scenarios. For smaller datasets, a centralized approach minimizes resource consumption while achieving top performance. For larger data volumes, a fully distributed architecture for both application and data is implemented, enabling rapid capacity expansion by scaling hardware resources.

Looking ahead, GBase will continue working with Kylinsec and Tongfang SoftBank to drive IT application innovation in the financial industry, providing powerful assistance for banks and other financial institutions to achieve their goals of independent innovation in key information technologies, and offering strong support for the digital transformation of the financial industry.
