India’s second-largest IT services firm Infosys on Wednesday announced a strategic partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to accelerate enterprise adoption of Generative AI (GenAI) and drive large-scale digital transformation.
The collaboration brings together Infosys Topaz, the company’s AI-first suite of services, solutions, and platforms, with Amazon Q Developer, AWS’s generative AI-powered assistant. The combined offering is aimed at enhancing Infosys’ internal operations while enabling innovation for clients across key sectors such as manufacturing, telecommunications, financial services, and consumer goods.
Infosys said the partnership will help enterprises improve productivity, modernise operations, and unlock new value by embedding GenAI across business processes. Infosys Topaz leverages advanced GenAI technologies to deliver AI-driven transformation while Amazon Q Developer supports developers by assisting with code generation, debugging, testing, and modernisation.
Sandeep Dutta, President, AWS India and South Asia, said the partnership reflects a shared commitment to helping organisations harness the full potential of GenAI. “The combined strengths of Amazon Q and Infosys Topaz will help organisations innovate faster, achieve greater operational agility, and unlock differentiated value for their customers,” he said.

Balakrishna D R, Executive Vice President and Global Services Head for AI and Industry Verticals at Infosys, said the collaboration is reshaping how enterprise value is created and delivered. “By integrating Amazon Q Developer with Infosys Topaz, we are not only transforming our internal functions, such as development cycles, but also enabling our clients to reimagine critical business areas including human resources, recruitment, and vendor management,” he said.
The partnership comes at a time when Amazon is significantly scaling its presence in India. In December, the company announced plans to invest over $35 billion in the country by 2030 across its businesses, with a focus on expansion, AI-led digitisation, export growth, and job creation.
Amazon has also restructured its workforce globally amid a broader technology industry shift driven by AI adoption. In July last year, the company laid off several hundred employees across multiple teams within AWS, according to a Reuters report. The job cuts reflect Amazon’s ongoing efforts to realign resources and double down on strategic AI investments as competition intensifies in the global cloud and AI market.
For Infosys, the partnership underscores its strategy to deepen AI capabilities and strengthen its position as a digital transformation partner for global enterprises.
