Bangalore, May 17 (UNI) Keeping in line with the business direction adopted by Intel globally, Intel India today introduced its focus on offering Indian enterprises the enhanced technologies and products allowing faster and easier adoption of modern clouds based on Software Defined Infrastructure (SDI). The company, in a release here said that it is providing secure, robust, and high performing x86 platform for software defined data center solutions to its customers in the country, including the Intel® Xeon® E5 2600v4 family of powerful processors with Intel® Resource Director Technology and enhanced security feature. These technologies enable customers to move to fully automated SDI-based modern clouds with greater visibility and control capability. Complementing Intel’s leadership in the data centre, the strategy to enhance SDI offerings is specially targeting at customers from the cloud, telecom, and e-commerce industry. According to Srinivas Tadigadapa, Director of Enterprise Solutions, Intel South Asia, “In India, changing dynamics, such as the growing number of mobile consumers and workforces, rise of pervasive analytics, and rapid innovation across industries have pressured businesses to move even faster for staying ahead or simply, staying alive.” “Today, both cloud service providers and enterprises are looking at SDI as it would allow businesses to adopt new type of cloud easier and faster. India is a budding ground for startups, and most of these ‘cloud born’ start-ups prefer to hire software based services (xAAS). For enterprises, the need is different. To be able to keep pace, they must evolve to an agile infrastructure that allows businesses to remain viable – either expanding the use of public cloud, deploying their own private cloud, or both. The result is pent-up demand for software-defined infrastructure. Intel is investing to mature SDI solutions and provide a faster path for businesses of all sizes to reap the benefits of the cloud,” he added he said. Additionally, Intel has established deep collaborations with hardware and software vendors in India to create an ecosystem that can enable enterprises to efficiently deploy Intel’s enterprise portfolio, and benefit from its capabilities. Dell, a long time collaborator of Intel, will offer product and solutions based on Intel® Xeon® E5 2600v4 processors to enterprise customers, targeting at the traditional enterprise sector.
