The client is a leading American financial services corporation and asset management company.

As part of digital transformation initiative, the client was looking to upgrade the existing legacy application batch process to an open-source technology stack. Infosys helped in eliminating the high licensing cost, building a complete QA automation suite and moving the application to an efficient cloud ready solution.

Key Challenges

  • Complex Design with zero documentation: A complex and obsolete business logic written in legacy technology and had absolutely zero documentation which incurred humongous analysis for reverse engineering.
  • Performance Bottleneck in current design: Leading to potential batch SLA risk.
  • Manual Validation: Low test coverage leading to more defects and lesser stability.
  • High Licensing Cost: High annuity spends due to software licensing costs.
