Stuart Tainsky, senior vice president and CIO of PURE
"Instead of concerns, I actually see this as the most optimistic time for technology leaders working in the insurance sector. The technology available today far exceeds anything we would have thought possible just five years ago.
Having open architecture systems available where you can easily pull data in and out allows for capabilities we didn't anticipate a few years back. In the past, all systems being closed and having to write difficult interface programs to get them to speak was just a fact of life.
Now with these upgraded software solutions opening up to allow for SOA, being able to do difficult integrations easier and in real-time is something that makes it quicker to deliver tremendous value to our business partners.
At PURE, we are taking advantage of Web-service architectures in a number of ways. We're saving man hours each month not having to do manual look-ups as the data flows directly in from outside services."
