VTB: Technology of data validation for the distributed microservice systems

2020: Obtaining the patent for the mechanism of validation of difficult data structures in microservice architecture

The VTB Group announced on June 26, 2020 obtaining the patent for the mechanism of validation of difficult data structures developed by specialists of bank in microservice architecture. This solution allows to reduce cost and labor input of check of correctness of the data entered by the user or transferred to a system via the interface.

The algorithm allows to carry out inspections of different complexity: from the admissible length or existence of digits and letters before control of simultaneous accomplishment of several necessary conditions, checks in reference books and so on.

Such checks will be executed also on user side, for example, in a client browser, and on the party providing check and data processing of the server. The solution allows each command developing specific microservice to create and in necessary timepoint to apply own rules of validation of the data getting to automated systems

The patent allows to solve a problem of the approved control of data in the complex distributed systems consisting of hundreds of microservices provides considerable cost reduction and coordination kontroly in each of system components.

One of problems of the strategy of digital transformation approved by VTB is creation of an operational technology platform which basis will be formed by microservice IT architecture of the last generation. Obtaining this patent – the next step to creation of competitive advantages of VTB Group on the speed of implementation of technological solutions and an output of services to the market, - the deputy president-chairman of the board of VTB Vadim Kulik commented.
