It’s time to cut the cord on ATMs and move them to the cloud.
That’s the thinking behind NCR Corporation’s announcement yesterday (April 15) that it has launched Kalpana software, a platform designed by the technology company to make ATM operations cloud-based.
Kalpana, NCR explained in its press release, operates ATMs remotely (currently on an Android operating system) and offers more heightened security against malware than is currently available on traditional, physically connected machines. Additionally, NCR touts Kalpana as facilitating speedier deployment of ATM services and reducing operating costs by up to 40 percent.
