About The Customer
Based in Paris, PRO BTP is France’s first social security provider for the construction and civil engineering industries. The group supports nearly 3.10 million members, providing products and services that include complementary retirement, non-life and life insurance, health services, savings, leisure and social activities.
The Challenge
PRO BTP is the social protection group for French building and construction professionals. It offers members (employees, retirees, craftsmen and construction companies) services in the areas of pension and health insurance (provident, health and savings). The firm had been using a processing system that was identifying unjustified health claims only after they had been paid. To reduce system abuses and better control expenses, PRO BTP needed to detect suspicious claims before the company reimbursed health professionals.
The Solution
Teaming with PRO BTP, IBM developed a secure service platform dedicated to detecting, categorizing and fighting fraud, service abuses and errors. Thanks to a detection engine validated by experts, this service platform, named Solon, analyzes optical and dental reimbursement claims in real time so that the firm can evaluate them before payment or before establishing a charges agreement. The platform features enriched predictive models that it can use to help detect fraud networks, and it is based on self-learning technology that pools detection schemes and takes advantage of an observatory watch.

KeyBank's Digital Transformation with Confluent's Data in Motion
KeyBank, one of the nation's largest bank-based financial services companies, embarked on a national digital bank initiative following the acquisition of Laurel Road, a digital consumer lending business. The initiative aimed to build a digital bank focused on healthcare professionals looking to refinance student loans and buy homes. A significant challenge was reducing the time to market for new products by democratizing data and decoupling systems across the IT landscape. Like many large enterprises, KeyBank had a variety of vendor applications, custom applications, and other systems that were tightly coupled to one another. New projects often required developing specific point-to-point integrations for exchanging data, which did not address the needs of other downstream systems that could benefit from the same data.

Bank BRI: Revolutionizing Financial Inclusion in Asia with Digital Banking
Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Bank BRI), one of the largest banks in Indonesia, was faced with the challenge of increasing financial inclusion among unbanked Indonesians. The bank had an ambitious target of having 84 percent of Indonesians participating in the banking system by 2022. However, the bank's legacy technologies were proving to be a hindrance in achieving this goal. Each of the bank's products had their own public APIs, which were difficult to manage, secure, and monetize. Additionally, the process of onboarding new partners using host-to-host and VPN technology was time-consuming, taking up to six months. The bank also faced the challenge of reaching a largely rural population, with an estimated $8.3 billion in currency being held outside the banking system.

Aerospike Achieves One Million Writes Per Second on Google Compute Engine with Just 50 Nodes
Aerospike, an open-source, flash-optimized, in-memory NoSQL database, was looking to push the boundaries of Google's speed on Google Compute Engine. The challenge was to meet high throughput, consistently low latency, and real-time processing, which are characteristic of future cloud applications. The team at Aerospike was inspired by Ivan Santa Maria Filho, Performance Engineering Lead at Google, who demonstrated 1 Million Writes Per Second with Cassandra on Google Compute Engine. The goal was to benchmark Aerospike's product performance on Google Compute Engine and see if it could scale with consistently low latency, require smaller clusters, and be simpler to operate.
