BlackRock Brings Aladdin Investment Platform to AWS

Investment management company BlackRock is teaming up with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to bring its Asset, Liability, Debt, and Derivative Investment Network (Aladdin) platform to the cloud. 

“Our Aladdin clients are seeking open, flexible platforms that can adapt to their operating models and scale with their ambitions,” said Sudhir Nair, senior managing director and global head of Aladdin at BlackRock.

“The Aladdin platform is built to be multi-cloud, and Aladdin on AWS is a key step in enabling multi-cloud functionality. By expanding Aladdin to AWS, we are giving clients more choice in where and how they deploy their technology ecosystem.”

“Our partnership with BlackRock combines AWS’s 20 years of experience running mission-critical financial services workloads with Aladdin’s industry-recognized technology expertise in helping transform how financial institutions manage their portfolios,” said Scott Mullins, managing director of worldwide financial services at AWS. “With Aladdin running on AWS, clients gain access to secure, scalable, and resilient infrastructure for advanced risk modeling, enterprise-grade analytics, and smart investment decision-making, while maintaining the highest security standards.”
