Bangkok Bank has engaged Akamai Technologies for the use of latter’s Web Performance Solutions to ensure delivery of quality user experience for its growing customer base across all geographies.
The largest commercial bank in Thailand plans to further expand its regional presence and international services to support its customers. It needs a platform that can manage the delivery of content to its growing customer base, both locally and globally.
Akamai is said to have helped enhanced overall user experience across all geographies by accelerating page load time by 50%.
“Akamai’s ability to provide a fast, secure and quality web experience has directly supported our plans to expand our business internationally, ensuring we provide all our customers with seamless and secure access to our banking services wherever they are,” said Ian Guy Gillard, EVP of Bangkok Bank.
Akamai’s Web Performance Solutions were able to provide security layered above quality performance, enabling the bank to identify excessive traffic demands on its origin server and ensure that its website was handling only legitimate requests from customers, he said.
“As a financial institution that stores and processes a client’s private information, it is paramount that we are able to protect the information that our clients have entrusted to us.”
