Microsoft today said it has signed a deal with Indian outsourcer Infosys Technologies Ltd. to manage key parts of worldwide internal IT operations, and hopefully cut IT costs.
The agreement calls for Infosys to take over responsibility for managing Microsoft's IT help desk and desk-side services operations, as well as servicing the company's applications, devices and databases in more than 100 countries.

The value of the contract wasn't disclosed though Bendor-Samuel projected its worth at more than $100 million.
