Global information technology, consulting and business process services company Wipro has announced the expansion of its strategic partnership with Google Cloud to accelerate cloud adoption and digital transformation for global enterprises.

By collaborating with Google Cloud, Wipro will catalyse innovation for enterprises in industry verticals such as consumer goods, BFSI, semiconductor, and healthcare, through a business-first strategy.

Wipro has a practice focused on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) that aims to power business and technology transformation for enterprises through differentiated offerings around application modernisation, data, analytics, artificial intelligence, SAP workload migration, and industrialised cloud migration at scale.

Wipro leverages GCP to build solutions and capabilities to help companies embark on their cloud journey.

Wipro's industry-focused solutions, with Google Cloud technologies embedded at their core, will enable enterprises to future-proof their IT investments.

Wipro's Insights-as-a-Service solution - Data Discovery Platform (DDP) is available on GCP.

The Data Discovery Platform accelerates insight-driven decision-making through pre-built applications for specific industries such as banking and financial services, retail, energy, education, and manufacturing.

The platform has 70+ use cases that address industry-specific key performance indicators.

In order to accelerate Google Cloud adoption across enterprises at scale, Wipro's Cloud Studio and Enterprise Digital Operations Center have been integrated with Velostrata, Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and other Google Cloud services to bring a DevOps-oriented pipeline approach to industrialised migration.

Wipro will also integrate Anthos, Google's open platform for managing applications in a multi-cloud world into these offerings to enable hybrid cloud deployments for its customers.

Wipro senior vice president and cloud services head Ramesh Nagarajan says,  “In collaboration with Google, we aim to enable our customers to migrate faster, enhance their digital experiences and optimise business outcomes.

Google Cloud global ecosystem corporate vice president Kevin Ichhpurani says, “We're excited that Wipro continues to invest in and grow its Google Cloud Practice."
