Cloud-native scalability enables organisations to handle fluctuating screening, monitoring, and decisioning volumes without compromising performance or control. As transaction volumes, customer bases, and regulatory requirements grow, compliance platforms must be able to scale dynamically to meet demand in real time.

Within the Facctum platform, cloud-native scalability underpins solutions such as Customer Screening, Payment Screening, and Transaction Monitoring, ensuring consistent performance across peak and variable workloads.

Why Cloud-Native Scalability Is Needed

Traditional on-premise or fixed-capacity systems often struggle to cope with spikes in activity, such as payment surges, sanctions updates, or onboarding campaigns. Scaling these systems can be slow, costly, and operationally risky.

Cloud-native scalability addresses this challenge by allowing compliance workloads to scale elastically based on demand, supporting resilience and availability without manual intervention.

How Cloud-Native Scalability Works

Cloud-native scalability works by deploying compliance services using distributed, container-based architectures that can scale horizontally. Resources are allocated dynamically based on workload intensity, allowing the platform to maintain performance during peak periods.

This approach supports real-time processing while optimising infrastructure usage and cost.

What Makes Facctum’s Approach Different

Facctum’s cloud-native scalability is designed specifically for regulated, real-time compliance use cases. Scaling behaviour is controlled and predictable, ensuring that performance improvements do not come at the expense of auditability or governance.

By combining scalability with resilience and observability, Facctum supports continuous availability even under high demand.

Where Cloud-Native Scalability Is Used

Cloud-native scalability is applied in scenarios such as:

• High-volume payment and transaction screening

• Real-time customer onboarding

• Sanctions list updates and rescreening events

• Global operations with variable regional demand

These use cases depend on consistent performance under changing load conditions.

How Cloud-Native Scalability Fits Into The Platform

Cloud-native scalability integrates with other platform capabilities such as API-first architecture, continuous screening, probability-based decisioning, and audit logging. It provides the infrastructure foundation that enables real-time compliance at scale.

This integration ensures that growth does not compromise control or reliability.
