Anubi Digital: a data warehouse built for AML compliance

A database built for anti-money-laundering compliance: it retains, it calculates risk, and it stands up to an audit.

Anubi Digital builds software and quantitative systems for institutional markets, and in finance anti-money-laundering compliance is not negotiable: data has to be retained as the regulation requires, the risk profile has to be calculated correctly, and the annual self-assessment cannot be left to chance. What was needed was a dedicated data warehouse that took the manual work out of the way and made everything traceable.

No interface to show: the project is a serverless microservice architecture, from the REST API through to compliant retention on Aurora PostgreSQL.

We built a complete data warehousing solution shaped around AML compliance, talking to the other systems through APIs and including a dedicated KYC module: verifying customer identities, checking documentation and flagging suspicious activity. The system feeds the automated analysis of anomalous transactions and guarantees a complete audit trail. Fewer calculations by hand, and more peace of mind when an inspection arrives.

TECHNICAL DEEP DIVE

A Nest.js backend for an efficient, scalable server, AWS Lambda for serverless execution, TypeORM for database handling and AWS RDS with Aurora PostgreSQL for managed, dependable operations. The architecture is microservice-based, to scale and stay flexible, with REST APIs connecting the components and a separate KYC module. On the DevOps side: AWS SAM for defining and deploying the serverless applications, and GitLab CI for continuous integration and delivery.
