Cloud Modernization in Payments: The Real Journey Starts After Migration

For payments giants like Convera, cloud migration isn’t the finish line—it’s just the beginning. After shifting its legacy infrastructure to AWS, Convera unlocked major benefits, including scalability, global reach, and innovation speed. The cloud removed infrastructure constraints, offering flexibility for unpredictable transaction spikes and enabling a more global footprint.

However, the true transformation came with a shift in data philosophy. Cloud modernization didn’t just enhance operations; it changed how data is handled, improving security, compliance, and automation. This foundation led to powerful innovations in AI, helping Convera’s customers reduce fraud, optimize payments, and personalize experiences.

Looking ahead, the real game-changer is “agentic AI,” where intelligent systems autonomously manage payment processes. While stablecoins have potential, they’re still seen as complementary to traditional rails until regulatory and operational hurdles are fully addressed.

Ultimately, the key to success in the cloud era isn’t just technology—it’s trust. Cloud modernization is as much about shifting mindsets as it is about infrastructure.
