Signature from Fiserv employs IBM's eServer i5 and pSeries for use with its enterprise banking applications. The IBM eServer i5 (formerly known as IBM eServer iSeries or AS/400) is a full-range processor that is the most popular and successful multi-user computer system in the world. Recent benchmark results on the IBM System I model 595 showed that the Signature core banking solution (U.S.) processed two 20 million account databases simultaneously resulting in more than 8.6 million accounts processed per hour.

Investments are made each day in systems to help organizations streamline their operations, as well as increase revenue and operational efficiency. However, as the landscape has evolved, best of breed technology and a desire to leverage existing assets have often resulted in a patchwork of systems, which do not or cannot communicate with one another.

The advent of middleware applications seemed the answer. However, simply plugging one system into another provided its own set of issues, including common languages and platforms. In its place, Fiserv offers Communicator for Signature, a service oriented architecture application that truly can link all of your disparate systems together, making total interoperability available today. Communicator is an XML-based software solution that provides a common interface to integrate dissimilar financial services systems. These middleware components reside on a server and provide communication between front-end (client) applications, and back-end systems, either of which may be local or remote. Communicator for Signature accomplishes unparalleled integration.
