Microsoft Industry Reference Architecture for Banking (MIRA-B)Quote SheetMay 2012Industry Partners“Having Microsoft as a founding and active member of BIAN (Banking Industry Architecture Network) is extremely powerful for our community, as Microsoft’s reach in the banking industry is vast. Using BIAN’s semantic business models gives Microsoft an ‘off-the-shelf’ blueprint for the company’s MIRA-B framework. As the BIAN Service Landscape is completely integrated into Microsoft’s reference models, the two standards are aligned, which provides a clear framework for the industry as a whole. It’s my strong belief that the MIRA-B framework will act as a catalyst for banks that are embarking on their journey of IT modernization and cost reduction through a service-oriented architecture.”Hans TesselaarExecutive Director BIAN“Financial Architects (FinArch) made an informed decision to base its applications on the Microsoft platform 15 years ago. Not only has this paid off tremendously for FinArch in terms of supporting the growth of the company and our solution suite, but our customers are reaping the benefits of an open, integrated, scalable, complete and affordable platform. Microsoft provides a first-class architecture for the financial services industry, and customers that implement it see real return on their investment.”Nigel LeeChief Commercial OfficerFinArch“We see key benefits from the Microsoft Industry Reference Architecture for Banking (MIRA-B) to enable enhanced process efficiency.
