METRO AG looks forward to take AI to the next level

METRO AG, a multinational food wholesaler with a network of 600+ stores in 21 countries, modernized fragmented systems and simplified business operations.

METRO partnered with Infosys for ‘Operation Michelangelo,’ a cloud modernization program to bring together compute capacity, data and artificial intelligence (AI). Infosys centralized and harmonized systems to help METRO distill business insights and accelerate business growth.

Infosys migrated 500 databases, more than 1,000 users, and 5,000+ country-specific programs to the Google Cloud Platform, as part of systems modernization. Our cloud migration approach ensured seamless and secure operations. Notably, intuitive interfaces of the unified Michelangelo data platform enable METRO to leverage data and AI for capitalizing on business opportunities.

METRO and Infosys executives share how ‘Operation Michelangelo’ created a partner ecosystem, enabling the retail chain to become more responsive. The cloud ecosystem delivers tangible outcomes, specifically in e-Commerce. Significantly, it has established a robust foundation to enhance business analytics and AI capabilities in the future.
