Gokei Tecnologia
Driving Innovation in the Financial Market with Scalable Solutions

Gokei Tecnologia (GOKEI), in partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS), has achieved a significant milestone in becoming Brazil’s first fully cloud-based technology service provider (PSTI).

Its lightweight, dynamic, and cost-efficient PSTI cloud model provides data processing services that are crucial to Brazil’s financial ecosystem, especially concerning three key systems—the Brazilian Payment System (SPB), the Instant Payment System (PIX), and the National Financial System Network (RSFN). For financial entities operating in Brazil, seamlessly integrating with these systems is a critical step to ensure their operational success.

GOKEI’s agile and scalable PSTI cloud makes this integration process a breeze, serving as a gateway for commercial banks, payment institutions and fintechs to tap into the broader spectrum of financial services and opportunities offered by the Central Bank of Brazil.

The relevance of GOKEI’s expertise is well-articulated by Rodrigo Takao, GOKEI’s CIO, who has over 35 years of experience in the financial sector. He says, “Once a financial entity is integrated with the RSFN through GOKEI’s system, it opens up a realm of possibilities for innovation, allowing these institutions to enhance their product offerings and service delivery while staying aligned with regulatory requirements.”

The proof is in the numbers. Gokei`s first clients, witnessed a substantial reduction in infrastructure and transaction costs and transaction speed after adopting GOKEI’s cloud-based solutions for PIX and SPB transactions.

This financial efficiency substantially reinforced the economic health of the first institutions, allowing them to reallocate resources to strategic areas, such as strengthening development teams and system improvements. This strategic pivot is now helping to catalyze the growth of all new customers, as evidenced by the first customers.

The cornerstone of these success stories is built on GOKEI’s five pillars of excellence—operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency and cost optimization. A solution built on these pillars empowers institutions to operate more effectively, securely and adaptively, positioning them at the forefront of meeting the evolving demands of digital banking.

Operational agility and flexibility offered by GOKEI’s PSTI cloud solution is another major advantage. There is no need for banks to purchase and maintain expensive hardware. Instead, the cloud’s pay-as-you-go model allows financial institutions to adjust usage and manage costs effectively, allowing them to scale computing resources according to their needs.

In certain cases, when clients’ transaction volume suddenly surges from a few million to hundreds of millions a day, the PSTI cloud automatically expands to match the demand without clients having to worry about infrastructure upgrades.

The underlying technology enabling this scalability is a combination of virtualization and containerization. These technologies enhance hardware efficiency by permitting multiple applications to concurrently utilize the same infrastructure, reducing the need for additional physical servers. This not only optimizes resource usage but contributes to environmental sustainability by curbing energy consumption.

In terms of reliability, GOKEI’s partnership with Ascenty, a leader in data center infrastructure in Latin America, and Dinamo Networks, renowned for its expertise in digital identity security and encryption, stands out. While Ascenty supports robust and secure data hosting capabilities within PSTI cloud solutions, Dinamo Networks’ multi-faceted security approach acts as a robust defense against emerging cyber threats.

Complementing these measures, the cloud platform will soon integrate AI and ML to monitor suspicious transaction patterns and identify anomalous behaviors.

At the core of GOKEI’s success are the innovative leaders Odecio Gregio and Rodrigo Takao, the dynamic duo behind the company. Their fusion of visionary leadership, cutting-edge cloud technology, and dedication to simplicity and efficiency encapsulates GOKEI’s strategy for redefining the landscape of financial transactions in the digital era.
