Just a few years ago, cloud computing in the mortgage industry was met with hesitation and questions:
Is the public cloud secure enough for sensitive financial data?
Should we opt for private clouds instead?
How can we ensure regulatory compliance in the cloud?
Today, those concerns have shifted dramatically. Cloud infrastructure is no longer just an option—it’s a strategic imperative for lenders aiming to stay agile in an increasingly fast-paced market.
At Mortgage Cadence, we’ve experienced this transformation firsthand through our cloud journey. The benefits have been profound—not only for our internal operations but also for the value we deliver to our clients.
Understanding this evolution sheds light on the exciting future of mortgage technology.
From Skepticism to Strategic Advantage
“Five to seven years ago, the primary barrier to cloud adoption was security,” explains Deepak Sambhariya, Head of Service Delivery at Mortgage Cadence. “Organizations simply didn’t trust putting sensitive data in the cloud.”
What’s changed? The major cloud providers have made unparalleled investments in security—billions of dollars dedicated to protecting their infrastructure.
“Cloud providers are investing billions in security and offering protections far beyond what most lenders could achieve with limited internal resources,” Deepak points out.
This shift has flipped the narrative: the cloud is now seen as a security enabler, offering enterprise-grade protections that individual lenders couldn’t replicate on their own.
Beyond Security: Speed, and Smart Innovation
Cloud adoption isn’t just about enhanced security—it’s unlocking real innovation and agility. Since migrating to Microsoft Azure, Mortgage Cadence has improved system scalability, in addition to other benefits.
“The shift to the cloud has also enabled our teams to leverage the latest technology and AI capabilities to accelerate development,” says Deepak. “We’re now able to deliver enhancements and innovations to our clients at a much faster rate, helping them stay ahead in a rapidly evolving market.”
Accelerating Innovation Through Cloud Agility
Perhaps the most game-changing advantage is speed.
Previously, rolling out new server infrastructure took months due to complex security and compliance hurdles. Now, cloud environments enable rapid provisioning—in days or even hours—without compromising standards.
“That acceleration means we can deliver updates more frequently, innovate faster, and respond quickly to changing market or regulatory demands,” Deepak says.
For lenders, this translates to quicker access to new features, smoother compliance updates, and a sharper competitive edge.
Looking Ahead: The Cloud-Enabled Mortgage Future
As cloud technologies continue to mature and integrate with mortgage workflows, the possibilities for innovation and efficiency will only grow.
Mortgage Cadence is committed to leading this evolution—ensuring lenders gain the full strategic benefits of cloud computing while maintaining the highest standards of security, compliance, and performance.
