HSBC has selected CloudBees as a software delivery platform provider as the lender aims to offer more secure banking services to its customers.

The collaboration builds on an existing partnership between the two entities that dates back to 2015.

The new multi-year arrangement will help HSBC to move to a modernised software delivery system and enhance productivity for over 23,000 developers. This is expected to deliver additional digital capabilities to bank’s customers.

The agreement includes all CloudBees Platform components such as continuous integration, continuous delivery, release orchestration and feature management capabilities.

HSBC shared services and cloud CTO Ian Haynes said: “As customers shift more and more of their banking online, software is at the heart of everything we do at HSBC.

“We are digitising the bank and innovating faster to improve the customer experience while prioritising security and compliance. We’ve chosen CloudBees because standardisation 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.”

CloudBees CEO Stephen DeWitt said: “Our fundamental goal is to help HSBC’s customers get the best and most secure banking experience possible and the way we do that is to make room for developers to write and safely deliver the best code possible and eliminate the tasks and interruptions that get in their way.”

Notably, HSBC operates a hybrid cloud environment, which triggers the need for a solution to unify deployments.

The CloudBees Platform will simplify software release automation across the entire global organisation. It will also ensure governance and audit oversight of high-frequency deployments.

Last month, HSBC partnered with Oracle NetSuite to launch a Banking as a Service (BaaS) offering.
