Infosys implements technology landscape separation programme for Team Global Express
Bengaluru, 16 April: Infosys on Tuesday said it has successfully completed the technology landscape separation programme of the Australian express logistics business, Team Global Express.
In a press release, the company said it has leveraged the tools from Infosys Cobalt to build on its strategic collaboration with Team Global Express and drive hybrid cloud-powered innovation.
Under this initiative, Infosys migrated Global Express’ applications and services to a sustainable and energy-efficient data centre and public cloud.
More than 300 applications were migrated to the new environment with no business disruption to Global Express’ 4,000 plus users including applications and network integration of over 100 sites. The technology separation was completed on time without any operational impact for either of the organisations, Infosys said in a release.
According to the Bengaluru-headquartered IT firm, 70 per cent of Global Express’ applications were moved to the cloud, to gain from the technical benefits provided by the public cloud and create a secure and agile foundation for future digital transformation.
This exercise helped reduce the overall risk by uplifting the base infrastructure and the security posture, the press release said.
Commenting on the completion of the project, Danny Gravell, CIO of Team Global Express, said, “Our partnership with Infosys enabled us to successfully set up an independent technology capability and transform our foundation technology platforms. By using the ready-to-use templates from Infosys Cobalt, we could complete the transformation at speed with maximum efficiency."
Karmesh Vaswani, Executive VP & Global Head of Consumer, Retail & Logistics at Infosys, said, “The separation programme for Team Global Express presented a unique opportunity to achieve significant value. Leveraging our proven Infosys Cobalt cloud ecosystem and through a collaborative partnership with Team Global Express, we successfully navigated the complexities of this programme, achieving an outcome that ranks among our most impactful engagements in the Australia and New Zealand region.”
