Fortune 500 BFSI cuts IT opex by 40% with Softility's Harness-powered DevOps platform

One of the world's largest data and credit bureaus was running a fragmented DevOps landscape comprising siloed CI/CD tools, legacy scripts, and redundant workflows across 100+ mission-critical applications driving high OpEx at one of its largest on-prem data centers. Softility implemented a Harness-powered unified DevOps platform, consolidating CI/CD, security, and cost management into a single interface, cutting IT operational costs by 40% while retiring 30+ legacy tools.

Challenge

  • Time-intensive, resource-heavy on-prem deployments with minimal automation drove high OpEx and slowed innovation across 100+ products.

  • A fragmented DevOps landscape included siloed CI/CD tools, legacy scripts, and redundant workflows, causing manual errors, longer cycle times, and difficulty scaling.

  • Inconsistent security scanning and governance created compliance risk, while leadership needed engineering teams to build, manage, and deploy services independently, without heavy reliance on centralized DevOps teams.

Solution

Softility implemented a Harness-powered unified DevOps platform, consolidating CI/CD, configuration management, deployments, cloud cost management, security orchestration, and supply chain into one integrated interface. We replaced legacy tools with Harness pipelines supporting blue-green deployments, canary rollouts, and automated rollbacks. We introduced self-service deployment, standardized role-based access control, and built-in security scanning enforced from development through production, reinforcing a culture of end-to-end team ownership.

Benefits:

  • 40% reduction in IT operational and infrastructure costs, with 30+ redundant tools retired and replaced by one unified platform.

  • Faster, safer software delivery, with manual deployment scripts and approvals replaced by fully automated pipelines across 100+ applications.

  • Built-in security and compliance by default, with vulnerabilities traced within the platform and teams gaining autonomy to build and manage services with minimal centralized overhead.
