Infosys (NYSE: INFY), the global leader in next-generation digital services and consulting, today announced that it has been positioned as a Leader in the Everest Group System Integrator Capabilities PEAK Matrix® Assessment 2021 across AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud. Through separate assessments, Everest Group recognized Infosys Cobalt as a core market differentiator among system integrators (SIs) across three major hyperscalers. The report also called out that Infosys’ integrated Cobalt strategy is resonating well in the market for expanding innovation with the cloud community and securing globally dispersed enterprises.
For the assessments, Everest Group evaluated over 20 leading system integrators based on an objective, data-driven, and comparative assessment of their absolute market success and delivery capability including service focus, IPs and solutions, domain investments, and success stories. Infosys showcased excellence in helping organizations become resilient and undergo swift digital transformation with a range of services and newer business models. Infosys’ design thinking approach, joint workshops with clients, and ability to demonstrate a clear transformational roadmap during RFPs were cited as key win themes across AWS engagements. The report also highlighted Infosys’ Google specializations on cloud migration and data analytics, as well as expertise in Microsoft Azure services supplemented by marquee wins across all solution areas.
“Public cloud spending is accelerating as the hyperscaler cloud providers AWS, Azure, and GCP help clients drive business transformation.

Therefore, enterprises now will need a different operating model to ensure their public cloud journeys are a success.
