Through this partnership, OCBC Indonesia is looking to tap the immense potential of generative AI solutions and data management, analytics, and AI capabilities of the Cloudera hybrid platform.

We are thrilled to be working with OCBC Indonesia to help them build an extensible platform to easily and flexibly build applications and leverage tools and frameworks to drive business transformation.”

As part of its future strategy, the bank plans to make AI/ML available to more of its systems and users. OCBC Indonesia doubles down on innovation, efficiency, and customer-centric approaches, as they rely on Cloudera to provide a strong and flexible foundation to help integrate AI at scale throughout the organisation and drive more customer innovation and regulatory reporting.
