Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Cisco are coming together to offer a first-of-its-kind software-defined approach to help enterprises adopt the Cloud through an easy transformation path by integrating the capability of Cisco ACI. This unique offering provides maximum security of the private Cloud while utilizing Cisco Openstack’s (software that controls large pools of computing, storage, and networking resources throughout a data center) core strengths.
Through focussed co-innovation and product engineering, Cisco and TCS are helping enterprise customers address fluctuating internal and external workload demands with real-time elasticity and lower TCO. For example, when the platform was deployed for a Large Insurance Customer, it resulted in a 60% decrease of east-west firewall traffic as well as high reductions in total ownership costs across multiple regions.
“Our alliance with TCS is a long-standing relationship built on innovation and trust. Our goals are aligned to cater to digital enterprises who need a ‘virtualized’ approach for their growing and diverse business needs. Through our continued co-innovation, TCS’s ECP has become the de facto solution for enterprises looking to transition from legacy infrastructure, and we are proud of this long-standing partnership,” said Rajesh Shetty, Managing Director, Enterprise Sales, India & SAARC, Cisco.
