Application architecture and design

Kyndryl builds scalable, high-performance application architectures that boost end-user satisfaction and align with your business goals. Through expert assessments and workshops, we uncover gaps and define operational, functional, integration and security requirements. We craft a clear roadmap for transformation and continuous modernization, addressing technical debt and composability. With a focus on cloud-native environments, we reimagine your applications for intuitive navigation, accessibility, and seamless, engaging user experiences. 

Intelligent application development

Kyndryl delivers intelligent, AI-infused applications that enable personalized and intuitive interactions. Our enterprise-grade Agentic AI Framework powers adaptive, secure-by-design AI agents that learn and act on insights. We streamline autonomous software development, reducing time and production errors through our Agentic Application services with agent builders and an extensive industry AI agent use-case portfolio.

Kyndryl enhances developer experiences and enables rapid application development by integrating agile DevSecOps and AI-powered automation. We enhance collaboration and early issue resolution, automate CI/CD workflows and security testing, and support cloud-native deployment with observability tools and low-code/no-code services—ensuring efficient delivery and improved software quality.

Platform engineering

Kyndryl empowers your development teams with custom Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) featuring self-service environments. These standardize and accelerate application delivery and promote reuse across teams and applications. This approach automates provisioning, testing, and deployment pipelines, boosting developer productivity, enabling faster deployment and reducing friction across teams—to help your enterprise shorten development cycles. We re-engineer cloud operations into agile, automated frameworks aligned with your business goals for scalable, efficient outcomes.
