Infosys partners MongoDB to tap customers with the application modernization needs

BANGALORE, INDIA: Infosys and MongoDB announced a global partnership designed to help enterprises accelerate their digital transformation and application modernization initiatives with next generation database solutions.

Infosys and MongoDB will help new and existing customers address the key pain points of cost, performance and scalability across legacy applications. As part of the partnership, Infosys will scale the talent base to 1,000 consultants on MongoDB and enhance consulting capabilities based on MongoDB technology.

The companies have established a joint Innovation Lab in Bangalore, India that houses a dedicated team of trained MongoDB architects. These experts are developing and enhancing tools and best practices to help Infosys customers with their application modernization initiatives. This lab is equipped to handle proof-of-concepts and rapid application prototypes to support customers with their MongoDB requirements. 

The partnership addresses the challenges organizations face as they attempt to unleash the power of data and capitalize on new market opportunities. Existing applications built on inflexible, legacy database technologies are costly, difficult to maintain and fail to meet the needs of modern applications.

Organizations recognize they need to re-platform applications, but have concerns about operational risks. They are looking for a partner that has the playbook for successfully managing the transition to the new enterprise data paradigm, and the skills and experience that are often hard to find in-house. Together, Infosys and MongoDB bring the scale, expertise and technology to deliver on application modernization programs at a global level.

Ravikumar S, President and Chief Delivery Officer, Infosys said, “Through our collaboration, Infosys can help organizations realize the full value on MongoDB to quickly and efficiently create state-of-the-art, high performance and scalable applications.”

Dev Ittycheria, President and Chief Executive Officer, MongoD said, "Infosys is at the forefront of helping the world’s largest enterprises strategically transform their businesses to become more agile, innovative and competitive. This partnership will tap into the huge market opportunity of replacing legacy, monolithic applications that are inflexible to change and unable to scale with high data growth.”
