Persistent Systems has announced the achievement of the Databricks Brickbuilder Specialization for Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI). According to reports from Business Standard, this recognition reflects Persistent's industry expertise and experience delivering solutions on the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform. The specialization strengthens Persistent's ability to help financial institutions turn fragmented data and AI pilots into scalable solutions.
The specialization provides Persistent with certified Databricks talent, reusable accelerators and established BFSI implementation patterns that reduce delivery complexity across risk, fraud and customer intelligence. As reported by PRNewswire, Persistent addresses the challenge of financial services organizations facing growing regulatory scrutiny, more sophisticated financial crime and rising customer expectations while legacy architectures continue to separate transactional data, risk and compliance, limiting timely insights and responsible AI deployment. The company leverages the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform to unify financial data into a governed, AI-ready layer, with Delta Lake, Unity Catalog and Mosaic AI supporting the development, evaluation and monitoring of data products, models and AI agents within institutional security and governance requirements.
According to Business Standard, Persistent's latest offering is the Merchant Risk Management and Fraud Detection solution, built on Databricks and powered by Agentic AI, which enables institutions to shift from reactive fraud controls to predictive, intelligent merchant risk management. The company also provides secure, data-grounded GenAI agents for operations, analytics and compliance, supported by evaluation and monitoring mechanisms designed for accuracy, explainability and alignment with BFSI workflows.
As reported by Business Standard, Persistent and Databricks continue to deepen their go-to-market collaboration through co-innovation and joint client engagements. For a leading European bank, the company leveraged Databricks to modernize risk data infrastructure and customer data frameworks, enabling faster access to governed insights and strengthening regulatory readiness. Additionally, Persistent helped one of Japan's largest financial services organizations establish a governed data management framework on Databricks that improved oversight while reducing cloud costs.
According to PRNewswire, Persistent has achieved Global Systems Integrator partner status for Databricks at the Silver Tier, with more than 1,000 certifications and over 10 accelerators on the platform. This partnership strengthens Persistent's position as a leading provider of AI-led, platform-driven Digital Engineering and Enterprise Modernization services across industries, with the company serving over 28,500 employees located in 21 countries and maintaining its position as a constituent of the Dow Jones Best-in-Class World Index.
