(Date updated to 1 June 2026) Data Engineers in Toronto May 2026 Semimonthly Meeting Topic: Data Modernization at Traditional Banks - From Legacy Mainframe to Cloud Abstract: As technology evolved from the age of industrialization to the age of information, and finally to this current age of AI, the average lifecycle of technology shrank from 10 to 6, and now it is 3 years.

Applications developed before 2010, especially those built on mainframes or outdated technologies, are increasingly seen as candidates for modernization. Mainframe transformation has been a top priority in financial services because of its operational inefficiencies and high maintenance costs associated with mainframes when compared to modern distributed systems. Still, the majority of the core processing engines within financial services depend on Mainframe as the mission-critical business rules are embedded Speaker: Vishal Sharma, VP - Software Engineering at Broadridge Speaker Profile: As a Software Engineering leader, I bring over 20 years of expertise in enterprise architecture and digital transformation.
