What will it take for companies with complex legacy landscapes to quickly sense changing business needs and continuously evolve in response? As several of them embark on the digital transformation journey, the opportunity to transform into agile, responsive beings, at enterprise scale, is a compelling one. The opportunity to be a Live Enterprise. Our vision for Infosys as a Live Enterprise is to position our 300K+ workforce at the sensing-feeling-responding core of the company, with the ability to seamlessly interact with and continuously learn from our client and partner ecosystems. To realize this vision, we are reimagining our employee experience, our core business processes, and all our enabling IT systems and infrastructure. This means focusing on personal productivity, nurturing zero-latency in processes, ensuring just-in-time data for decision-making, driving hyper-productivity and facilitating continuous learning to instill new patterns of sentient behaviour.

Our session tells the story of how Infosys IT went through this transformation, primarily focusing on the Agile and DevSecOps adoption and automation at scale to transform the delivery of IT systems to be sentient, faster, reliable, resilient and scalable. Along with the technology transformation to modernize IT applications and systems, Infosys Distributed Agile & DevSecOps Model was adopted to transform Ways of Working and DevSecOps practices. To enable and accelerate this adoption, an *enterprise-grade platform* that empowers teams with codified engineering practices and AI/ML driven insights for faster and secure releases, was employed. Infosys DevSecOps Platform is a Cloud native, ‘NoCode’ DevSecOps platform built on sentient principles powered by AI/ML driven insights, with security built in across the value stream. The platform significantly eased the adoption of modern technologies due to it's out-of-the-box CI-CD support and its metrics driven visibility across portfolios guided in managing the KPIs and goals. Through its self-service model, it accelerated the adoption of SOX compliant release automation pipelines governed by templates and gating w.r.t to code quality, security and automation coverage.
Through this session, we share our learnings from this massive transformation led by a platform approach, touching areas around people, process, technology and tools transformation.
The landscape involves diverse technologies (Angular, JAVA, Service fabric, Android, IOS, Docker, Kubernetes, Python, Cloud, PostgreSQL) and environment agnostic (On-premise / Hyperscalers) container-based deployments. Platform approach helped in moving from from Docker Swarm to Kubernetes and Nexus to JFROG.

INFOSYSIT has delivered DevSecOps automation at scale – 150+ applications, 700+ pipelines, 100K+ builds & deploys. DevSecOps practices at INFOSYSIT automated code quality analysis, Continuous testing have resulted in 100% increase in the no. of releases per month, 50% improvement in Deployment Lead time, 48% defect reduction and 15% ticket reduction due to better quality releases.
