Harness and Workday: A New Era in AI-Driven Software Delivery
Workday has selected Harness, a leading AI software delivery platform, to accelerate and secure its software delivery processes on an enterprise scale. This collaboration enables Workday to further enhance the rapid, secure deployment of next-generation AI capabilities for its customers, reinforcing its commitment to innovative, high-velocity software delivery.
Transforming the Digital Assembly Line with AI
Modernizing enterprise software delivery is a complex challenge, especially when it comes to integrating advanced artificial intelligence. Harness introduces AI-powered automation and verification into Workday’s development pipeline, essentially embedding intelligent “safety sensors” into the digital assembly line. These sensors continuously verify code for security, performance, and compliance, dramatically reducing manual effort and minimizing risks that might otherwise slow down the release of new features.
The AI software delivery platform offered by Harness allows Workday’s engineering teams to focus on building transformative AI solutions for managing people, money, and digital agents—rather than getting bogged down by repetitive coordination tasks. Harness’s intelligent platform helps identify issues earlier in the software lifecycle, ensuring that only secure, high-quality code reaches production.
Achieving Speed and Security at Enterprise Scale
Gabe Monroy, SVP and GM of Workday Platform, highlighted the importance of moving fast while maintaining high security standards: “Our ability to innovate for customers starts with how quickly and safely we can evolve the platform. Harness automates more of our software delivery pipeline and applies AI-driven verification throughout it, so we can surface issues earlier and ship AI capabilities faster—without compromising on trust or compliance.”
Workday’s technology stack is engineered for resilience and large-scale operations, but the demands of the AI era require even greater agility and governance. By integrating the AI software delivery platform from Harness, Workday ensures its software delivery lifecycle—from code commit to deployment—meets the strictest standards for speed, governance, and security.
Harness: Powering Modern Software Delivery
Jyoti Bansal, co-founder and CEO of Harness, shared, “Workday’s advanced engineering standards demand a platform capable of operating at an extreme scale for the world’s largest brands. We’re proud that the Harness platform was chosen to meet their rigorous requirements for speed and governance as software delivery becomes increasingly AI-driven.”
Harness is not just another automation tool. It leverages its proprietary AI and the Software Delivery Knowledge Graph to bring intelligent automation to every stage after code development—testing, deployment, verification, and even cost optimization. This means less time spent on manual, repetitive work and more time dedicated to innovation. Companies using Harness, such as United Airlines and Choice Hotels, have reported accelerating release cycles by up to 75%, reducing cloud costs by 60%, and boosting DevOps efficiency by as much as 10 times.
Driving Organizational Efficiency and Compliance
For organizations like Workday, efficiency alone isn’t enough. The AI software delivery platform must also support deep organizational context, surfacing potential risks early while ensuring compliance with global standards. Harness’s tools are designed specifically to deliver on these demands, helping enterprises stay ahead of risks and deliver improvements to customers with greater speed and reliability.
Empowering the Future of AI-Driven Enterprises
As enterprises look to harness the full potential of AI, the need for reliable, intelligent software delivery platforms becomes more critical than ever. The partnership between Workday and Harness exemplifies how leading organizations are investing in platforms that not only accelerate innovation but also guarantee the security and integrity their customers demand.
