Information technology company Cognizant on Monday announced to acquire Linium, a cloud transformation consultancy group -- its second acquisition in a single day after acquiring Servian, an Australia-based, enterprise transformation consultancy firm specialising in data analytics, Artificial Intelligence (AI), digital services and Cloud.
Including the two fresh acquisitions, Cognizant has announced 11 acquisitions in the past 12 months -- an aggregate investment of approximately $1.4 billion -- in its strategic digital focus areas of cloud, data and artificial intelligence, digital engineering and Internet of Things.
Completing the Linium transaction will further accelerate Cognizant's cloud strategy, marking the company's seventh cloud-related acquisition since January 2020.
