Infosys unveils Topaz Fabric, modular AI stack for IT ops, security
When Infosys launched Topaz Fabric, it felt like a plug-in for the everyday grind of enterprise IT teams. The platform appears to be a ready-made layer you can drop onto an existing stack, promising to automate routine chores while tightening security and quality checks. Most AI-ops tools still need a lot of wiring; Topaz Fabric says it avoids that by offering pre-configured pieces.
It covers everything from operations and transformation projects to quality engineering and cybersecurity, so you don’t have to stitch together a patchwork of products. Infosys also mentions more than 50 AI agents built for IT work, each supposedly ready to go with only minimal setup. That’s the gist, and it raises a few questions.
The company says Topaz Fabric leans on what you already have, delivering AI-led features out-of-the-box across ops, transformation, quality engineering and security. It also bundles over 50 AI agents tailored for IT tasks, with pre-integrated hooks that keep the rollout quick.
According to the company, Topaz Fabric builds on existing IT investments to deliver AI-led capabilities out-of-the-box, spanning IT operations, transformation, quality engineering, and cybersecurity services. The platform also includes over 50 AI agents purpose-built for IT operations, with pre-integrations across nine enterprise platforms. The company said the platform will be customised to each enterprise's landscape by its forward deployed engineers, who will work alongside client business teams to ensure high-quality IT services delivered with "exponential speed and accuracy." It emphasised that services on Topaz Fabric are designed to operate with "AI agents working with humans in the loop." These agents can execute end-to-end workflows, automate or eliminate repetitive tasks, and augment human workers.
"For example," Infosys explained, "the Infosys AI HR agent can process an employee query regarding business travel over chat or email, and additionally generate the corresponding travel request." Human workers, the company added, "supervise, train and continuously contextualise the out-of-the-box AI agents to ensure accuracy, governance, and ethical alignment." Infosys positioned Topaz Fabric as part of its broader push to make enterprise AI systems more modular, governable, and value-focused, helping clients accelerate digital transformation while maintaining oversight and trust in AI-driven operations. Satish HC, chief delivery officer, Infosys, said, "Infosys Topaz Fabric brings to our clients the resilience that comes from combining the transformative powers of artificial intelligence with human creativity to supercharge service delivery across the enterprise landscape, while building on their existing investments." The CDO added that this approach lets them reimagine their services stack to become the powerful engine that can accelerate to match the pace of business and deliver for them the competitive advantage that they need.
Infosys describes Topaz Fabric as a composable AI stack. It bundles more than 50 agents, pre-integrated services and a single UI, supposedly to speed AI value. The layered, open architecture claims to stitch together data and AI functions across a range of enterprise systems, which should cut integration friction and push IT services out faster.
The platform is said to sit on top of existing IT assets and to ship out-of-the-box tools for operations, transformation, quality engineering and cybersecurity. How fast a company can turn those tools into measurable results, though, is still a question. Its “services-as-software” model might make buying easier, but real adoption will probably depend on how much work is needed to hook it up.
Critics could wonder whether the promised speed-up of service delivery is possible without heavy customization. Infosys pitches Topaz Fabric as a bridge between legacy gear and newer AI capabilities, yet third-party validation is missing, so the true impact stays uncertain. Whether the suite lives up to its claim of faster, bigger AI returns will hinge on upcoming deployments.
