Bengaluru, April 7, 2026: Infosys and Harness have announced a collaboration aimed at helping enterprises speed up software delivery, improve reliability, and scale AI adoption across IT environments. The companies said the partnership combines Infosys Topaz, Infosys Cobalt, and the Harness Software Delivery Platform to support agentic AI-led transformation programs.
The announcement is about software delivery, modernization, and enterprise AI operations. Infosys said the collaboration is intended to standardize and automate the path from code to production by applying AI across the software delivery lifecycle. Many engineering teams still spend most of their time on testing, deployment, security, governance, reliability, and cost optimization, often through manual processes that slow releases.
Topaz Fabric is a multi-layer AI fabric that connects infrastructure, models, data, applications, and workflows into an agent-ready system. Harness brings its delivery intelligence and software delivery platform into the arrangement. Together, the two companies said they want to support enterprises that are modernizing large application estates and trying to use AI in a more governed way.
The collaboration is designed for large-scale modernization and transformation programs, with a focus on complex, high-scale, and regulated environments. That makes the partnership most relevant for banks, insurers, telecom firms, manufacturers, and other organizations that need software changes to move faster without weakening controls.
The announcement also points to teams that are already working with cloud, DevOps, and AI tools, but still face friction in release pipelines. The promise here is not a consumer-facing product; it is a delivery model for organizations that need better software velocity, governance, and traceability.
Salil Parekh, Chief Executive Officer, Infosys, said, “Our collaboration with Harness combines Infosys Topaz and Infosys Cobalt offerings to help clients unlock AI value and translate their AI ambition into scalable, reliable execution – with trust and governance built in. Together, we are enabling a more disciplined path from innovation to production, embedding security, compliance, and resilience into how software is delivered across complex environments.”
Jyoti Bansal, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, Harness, said, “As AI accelerates code generation, the real challenge for enterprises is ensuring that innovation reaches production safely and efficiently. This creates what we call the AI Velocity Paradox: development speeds up, but downstream processes like testing, security, compliance, and deployment struggle to keep pace – introducing new risk and complexity. By bringing Harness’s intelligent delivery platform together with Infosys’ deep enterprise expertise, we’re helping organizations deliver AI-driven software innovation with greater speed, predictability, and control.”
