Coreless Architecture Solutions
for the Banking Industry
Reimagine Your Architecture – Build a Flexible, Resilient Digital Core
At Knotion, we help organisations break free from the limitations of rigid, legacy systems. Coreless Architecture is not just a technical shift, it’s a strategic approach to designing adaptable, component-based systems that evolve with your business.
By aligning architecture, operations, and strategic intent, we help you create a connected, real-time environment that responds to change, drives innovation, and creates lasting value. Because in a world of constant disruption, resilience starts with flexibility.
Coreless Architecture vs BIAN
Coreless Architecture is an overarching principle, the idea of removing dependency on a single, monolithic core by using modular, interoperable components.
BIAN (Banking Industry Architecture Network) is one highly effective way to achieve Coreless Architecture in the banking sector. It provides a service-oriented framework and standardised APIs that allow financial institutions to build and integrate systems more flexible.
While BIAN is a powerful enabler for banks, Coreless Architecture principles can be applied across any industry using the right frameworks and technologies.
How Knotion Helps You Build Coreless, Agile Architectures
We help leaders move from rigid systems to dynamic solutions. Knotion works with you to design and implement Coreless Architectures based on the Banking Industry Architecture Network (BIAN) framework—creating flexible, modular systems that support faster change, smarter decisions, and sustainable growth.
Our goal is to ensure your technology moves from being a constraint to becoming a catalyst for transformation.

FAQs
Is BIAN the same as Coreless Architecture?
No. Coreless Architecture is a broad principle; BIAN is one method of applying it in the banking industry.
What is Coreless Architecture?
Coreless Architecture is the practice of designing flexible, component-based systems that replace traditional, monolithic architectures, supporting agility and scalability.
Why is Coreless Architecture important?
Without a coreless approach, architectures become rigid and outdated, making it hard for organisations to respond to change, integrate new technologies, or maintain strategic alignment.
How long does it take to implement Coreless Architecture?
Implementation timelines vary depending on complexity, but Knotion works with you to develop a Coreless Architecture at a pace that aligns with your business goals.
Can Coreless Architecture support digital transformation?
Yes. Coreless Architecture ensures that your technology remains flexible, supporting digital innovation and enabling data-driven decision-making.
Is Coreless Architecture only for large organisations?
No. Coreless Architecture benefits organisations of all sizes, creating agile architectures that support growth and change.
