Background

Dealogic has been servicing the investment banking industry for over 25 years with its competitive positioning solutions. Dealogic offers an investment banking management platform that incorporates technology, data, analytics and consulting services. Dealogic boasts a client list comprised of every one of the top 50 banks in the world.

Business Challenge

Dealogic produces in-depth analytical reports for distribution to business publications. These reports provide valuable industry insights to executives around the current financial climate and industry trends. Financial data constantly fluctuates and it is difficult to capture real-time, user-friendly views into this data.

Dealogic decided to address this challenge by leveraging the Windows Azure Platform to produce an analytical dashboard that would be presented on the Wall Street Journal website. Dealogic has a talented in-house IT team that created the architectural design for deployment. Although Dealogic has a rich pool of IT staff, they lacked collective experience with architecting and deploying a cloud implementation. Nimbo was brought in to provide architectural design guidance and an implementation approach following Windows Azure best practices.
