Amazon Web Services ( AWS ) comes in as DNB ’ s primary big data appliance , but Millar is quick to add that DNB takes a holistic approach to its vendor partnerships , representing a break from the approach the sector has taken in the past : “ Traditionally , most big banks went with one data vendor , but that didn ’ t enable them to leverage the niche capabilities of multiple partners .” DNB has taken a different route , bringing in the flexible , best of breed solutions : R-Studio , Jupyter Notebook , Spark , Neo4j among others , for their data science capabilities ; Syncsort ( Trillium ) for data quality and Collibra for its crowdsourcing business orientated data governance toolset ; D4T4 for leading edge tagless digital channel capture ; and Infosys as the strategic data partner , leveraging their capabilities and accelerators , related to data
