The banking crisis of 2009 shuttered many regional banks, but others survived because their books were in order and they had cultivated customer loyalty with better service than large national banks or local boutique banks could provide. Real-time transaction processing is one convenience bank customers expect. If they make a deposit or sign up for a service, the bank wants the transaction completed immediately. That puts a high premium on application uptime for service and sales apps running at branches and main offices.
