Customer self-service (user to business)

 

Sample sites include those used for banking from home, tracking packages, and making travel arrangements. Home banking customers typically review their balances, transfer funds, and pay bills. Data comes largely from legacy applications and often comes from multiple sources, thereby exposing data consistency.

Security considerations are significant for home banking and purchasing travel services, less so for other uses. Search traffic is low volume; transaction traffic is moderate, but growing rapidly.
