The client operates the world’s fastest payment processing network in more than 210 countries and territories that support transactions of over 725 million credit & debit cards globally. It wanted to build a business view for IT infrastructure and applications. It was also looking to ensure data integrity by implementing a robust process for managing changes to the IT infrastructure.
