Migrating legacy systems for an Australian mutual fund organization
Overview
An Australian mutual fund organization serving members across motoring, mobility, leisure, financial services and insurance embarked on a digital transformation journey to deliver modern experiences and introduce innovative products. To overcome the limitations of its on-prem infrastructure, the organization partnered with us and migrated their member engagement applications to the cloud. The team achieved greater agility and efficiency by leveraging API-led integration and scalable middleware.
The Challenge
The client’s on-prem member engagement applications struggled with scalability, slow environment provisioning and a monolithic architecture. These limitations slowed down feature delivery, delayed platform updates and restricted support for modern integration patterns ultimately hampering the organization’s ability to meet evolving member needs and stay competitive.
The Solution
To overcome these challenges, we implemented a robust middleware architecture using MuleSoft’s Anypoint Platform and drove a series of strategic initiatives. Our team:
- Enabled API-led integration to streamline connectivity and accelerate development across LOBs
- Delivered the solution as a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) to ensure scalability, security and cost efficiency
- Leveraged our DevOps solution for MuleSoft accelerator to cut development time and costs
- Deployed the proprietary analytics reporting framework to enable end-to-end transaction tracking and business insights
- Packaged sub-flows into a reusable MuleSoft utility library to standardize pluggable code and address non-functional requirements
- Enhanced, managed and supported over 300 APIs enabling a smooth migration from monolithic systems to cloud-native architecture
The Impact
The transformation delivered measurable business benefits by driving tangible outcomes.
- Reduced development costs by approximately 25% through accelerator-driven efficiencies
- Boosted operational efficiency by 15%, enabling the client to operate more effectively
- Implemented a secure, scalable middleware platform to support ongoing digital transformation
- Accelerated innovation by enabling rapid onboarding of new products and applications
- Maximized returns on technology investments and positioned the client as a market disruptor
Beyond the Numbers
By migrating to a modern, API-led cloud platform, the client gained the agility to launch new products faster, respond to member needs in real time and experiment with emerging technologies. The robust middleware foundation empowered teams to innovate, optimize costs and deliver a seamless member experience solidifying the organization’s position as a leader in Australia’s financial services sector.
