TANGO is today's modern payments platform, using state-of-the-art technology to address business needs both now and in the foreseeable future. The core principles of TANGO's architecture provide the maximum flexibility regarding choice of platform, database and operating environment to meet hardware and software preferences.
TANGO is built on a highly performing micro-services architecture providing agile delivery for business. The collection of autonomous services work together to provide a global service and can be developed separately and deployed and run independently. Our CBSD approach leads to reduced development and maintenance costs which provides faster time-to-market and an ongoing, cost-effective payments solution. |

With it's versatile common architecture, TANGO removes issues regarding integration associated with disparate legacy systems and can be deployed on one hardware platform, or multiple hardware platforms, from the same or different hardware vendors all running the same TANGO infrastructure and code base.
TANGO provides a modern, open SOA for acquiring, routing, switching, authenticating and authorizing transactions across multiple channels — including ATM, point of sale, Internet and mobile banking — in a multi-institution environment across different geographies.
TANGO's unique design removes complexities and reduces migration time frames. Off-the-shelf functionality and rapid development capability means that standard card types, international card schemes and devices, national switches, and hosts can be deployed easily, within the standard product.

What is a Microservice Architecture?
A microservice application is a collection of autonomous services, each of them doing one thing well, and when combined, work together to provide a global service. Instead of a single complex system (monolithic architecture), the aim is to build and manage a set of relatively simple services that might interact in complex ways. These services collaborate with each other through a messaging protocol.
Microservices promise a better way to sustainably deliver business impact. Rather than a single monolithic unit, applications like TANGO, built using microservices are made up of loosely coupled, autonomous services. Building services that do one thing well avoids the inertia and entropy of large applications. |
This article is an introduction to TANGO version 8, a major upgrade that provides full microservice integration and complete Cloud capacities.

Next Generation Retail Payment technology
TANGO is a Mission Critical System that does NOT Fail
For this reason, many large banks and financial institutions as well as other mission critical businesses have chosen the TANGO solution for many years. These organizations have demanded a modern, open architecture with superior availability, scalability and data integrity as they look to the future.
TANGO is a transaction processing system for acquiring, routing, switching, authenticating, and authorizing transactions across multiple channels including ATM, POS, e-Commerce, and Mobile. The TANGO Payments Server is based on a generic architecture that has no restrictions on transaction types: both standard and non-standard transactions can be easily defined in the system, as can new transaction types and message flows.
TANGO operates as a truly integrated processing engine allowing full support for traditional payments processes such as high availability and fraud detection. These are integrated into the architecture as part of standard product, reducing dependence on 3rd party software and removing any associated compatibility issues. In addition, financial institutions can use TANGO to expand beyond the traditional types of transactions. For example, loyalty programs can co-exist within the same architecture and code base.
On top of all this TANGO supports a number of APIs that can be plugged into other internal bank systems to ease integration. For example, the Java plug-in can reside on a Java system and interact with the Java adapters in that system, whilst communicating to the TANGO server in internal TANGO format. This removes the need to specify a particular protocol just to talk to the Java system.
TANGO's modern, flexible, service-oriented architecture supports a number of relational databases operating across multiple platforms. Based around a central data bus containing all transaction and configuration data, authorization is based on configurable parameterized data held in tables rather than scripts which is more performant, controllable and flexible.
