ImagePlus High Performance Transaction System

ImagePlus High Performance Transaction System (HPTS) was an IBM application designed for banking, specifically for check processing and statement management. It automated image capture, recognition, and storage, reducing manual effort and improving efficiency. The system included the Check Image Management System (CIMS) for storing check images and supported hardware like the IBM 3897 and 3898 Image Processors.

The architecture of HPTS included components for image capture, image recognition, and image storage. The Check Image Management System (CIMS) was a core component for managing check images. While specific API details are not available, HPTS likely used proprietary interfaces for communication between its components and integration with other banking systems.

Given that ImagePlus HPTS is no longer supported, organizations should migrate to modern banking platforms. These platforms offer advanced features, enhanced security, and better integration capabilities. Potential replacements include Oracle FLEXCUBE, FIS IBS, Infosys Finacle, Temenos Transact, and SAP Banking Services.

Migration involves assessing current business processes, selecting a suitable replacement system, and carefully planning data migration and system integration to minimize disruption. Modern platforms offer robust security with advanced encryption and access controls.
