Just saw this via LinkedIn, about Infosys, my former employer:
On Bloomberg:
Infosys Hires Ex-SAP Executive as CEO to Revive Margins
Then checked on Google News and saw a few more links about the news:
On Reuters:
Infosys names Vishal Sikka as first external CEO in turnaround bid
On Quartz:
Infosys’ founders are all leaving management to let the new CEO, Vishal Sikka, do his thing
The Quartz article says that Vishal Sikka holds a Ph.D. in computer science from Stanford University, and was SAP's first CTO.
Disclaimer: No endorsement of the articles' titles or opinions, either for or against, is meant, obviously. But the news is interesting.

Narayana Murthy, Infosys founder, to come back
TOI: Narayana Murthy's priority will be to stabilize Infosys in transition
Narayana Murthy, who co-founded Infosys Technologies, is to come back as executive chairman, after retiring some years ago. I saw a few articles about this in the Times of India today.
There have been reports in the media that Infosys has not been doing so well for some time, at least compared to other companies in the same league.
Don't know much of the details about that, but anyway, hope this will be a change for the better.
A recent article on NDTV says that Mr Murthy was listed as one among the "12 greatest entrepreneurs of our time" by Fortune magazine in 2012.

I worked at Infosys for some years, earlier, and learned a lot while I was there, not only about technology but other areas too.

Infosys Cloud Ecosystem Hub launched
By Vasudev Ram
Infosys Technologies, where I worked earlier, has launched the Infosys Cloud Ecosystem Hub, "the first unified enterprise gateway to a hybrid cloud environment", reports the Sacramento Bee (via PR Newswire).
Official Infosys announcement about the Cloud Hub, with a video.
Infosys had announced a few years ago that they would be focusing a lot on cloud computing. This seems to be one of the results of that focus, apart from the usual consulting / development services, of course. CA, Dell, Hitachi, Microsoft and VMWare are partners, says the report.
Here is another news article about it, from ZDNet.
Excerpts:
[ The product ... will let companies buy, deploy and manage cloud services across multiple environments.
...
The Hub's brokerage service allows users to compare products from over 30 companies, including Amazon, Microsoft, VMWare and Oracle, on metrics such as quality of service and compliance with particular regulations.
...
Organisations can look at the performance of their entire ecosystem, from their private cloud to multiple public clouds, on a single dashboard, in terms of how do they perform, are they adhering to their SLAs, ... on a real-time basis. ]
If you want to check it out, here is a short and easy to remember URL for the Infosys Cloud Hub: infosys.com/cloud/hub. RESTful, hey? :)
