Infosys and IBM join hands to accelerate digital transformation

Infosys, in an exchange filing made after market hours on Monday, announced a global alliance to help enterprises accelerate their digital transformation journey using the IBM public cloud.

The collaboration will help enterprises -- including those in highly regulated industries such as financial services, insurance and healthcare -- to transition, modernize and transform their enterprise workloads and applications by tapping into the security, open innovation and enterprise capabilities of the IBM public cloud.

As part of the relationship, Infosys will also offer its clients access to Red Hat's portfolio of open source offerings on the IBM public cloud. This will provide enterprises a greater level of scale, resources and capabilities to accelerate the impact of their cloud-driven digital transformation.

Infosys will be the first Global System Integrator to join the new IBM Public Cloud Ecosystem, to help bring IBM public cloud services to clients via service providers. As part of the program, Infosys will be able to deploy technical expertise from IBM to support clients in their move to IBM public cloud. IBM will work with Infosys and its clients to speed efforts such as proof of concepts, running cloud pilots, staffing client innovation centers and other mechanisms designed to deliver value quickly and securely.

Infosys provides business consulting, information technology and outsourcing services.

Shares of the IT major ended 1.78% higher at Rs 744.35 in yesterday's session.
