Bharti
Airtel, the domestic telecom major, announced partnership with Amazon
Web Services to offer its cloud computing services to domestic
customers.
“In
line with this market adoption, we are excited to strengthen Airtel’s
cloud services portfolio by adding Amazon Web Services to our growing
list of cloud services providers… We are confident that this will help
our global customers truly leverage the benefits of cloud,” Bharti
Airtel’s Global Business CEO Ajay Chitkara said in a statement.
Cloud
computing services offer software and other facility to customers while
charging them on usage basis, i.e., without requiring them to buy
entire product.
An
Airtel official explained that under this partnership customers will
get commitment from the company on a dedicated connection between their
premise and AWS data centres – the facility which was not available
earlier.
Amazon Web Services offers facility like website hosting, data storage and other softwares required to run or manage businesses.
“By
utilising AWS Direct Connect customers are able to reduce network
costs, increase bandwidth throughput and provide a more consistent
network experience, helping Indian businesses of all sizes to rapidly
expand their organisations,” Amazon Web Services India Head Bikram Singh
Bedi said.
