Cordoba
With KORDOBA developed by Fidelity Information Services GmbH is core banking designated. This term appears very often in discussions about the electronic processing of core banking in the banking sector and refers to the software that is used in a bank's data center and covers the basic core processes within a bank.
KORDOBA stands for K wounds or ientiertes D ial o GSYSTEM for Ba nkgeschäfte.
In its beginnings, the system goes back to a development by Siemens AG and was first brought onto the market in 1982. The further development was transferred to KORDOBA GmbH in 1998, which was initially a Siemens subsidiary and was sold to Fidelity National Information Services in 2004.
Originally it only ran on mainframes with Siemens operating systems ( BS1000 and later BS2000 ). Since September 2006, after extensive modernization, the system has also been available under Solaris and z / OS , with the original mask orientation being replaced by a browser-based interface.
With small and medium-sized banks, KORDOBA has roughly the same status and a comparably high market penetration as SAP systems in the manufacturing industry. The discount broker Consorsbank has been using Kordoba as a backend system (so-called legal system) since 1995 .
