AVASANT ANALYST INSIGHTS

Practice Maturity

  • Both Atos and Syntel bring together significant hybrid cloud expertise to the market. While the integration is still ongoing, Atos|Syntel will leverage the significant assets that Atos brings to the table. These comprise of over 10 multi-cloud tenant hubs and a wide hybrid cloud client base.
  • The hybrid strategy of the combined entity is likely to center around the Atos Canopy, a hybrid cloud platform that supports delivery of services across a wide spectrum of clouds, including in public-private constructs. This platform is also one of the key pillars of its digital transformation factory which is a strategic focus area for the firm, accounting for over a quarter of its revenues.
  • Additionally, it has a strong suite of accelerators and automation tools (especially the SyntBots from the Syntel side of the house) that enable highly automated and differentiated end-to-end services. Using these significantly improved its hybrid cloud business operating margins.
  • Before the merger, Atos was bullish in acquisitions in cloud space (Equens and Unify in 2016). This strategy might slow down post-integration.
