'Airtel Cloud' platform a real proposition for customers: Gopal Vittal - World News Network

New Delhi [India], August 4 (ANI): Gopal Vittal, Vice Chairman and MD, Bharti Airtel, on Monday said the just-launched ‘Airtel Cloud’ platform is a watershed moment for them, and going ahead, it can be a “real proposition” for their customers.
“We’ve been using that cloud for the last 6 years, so we have a lot of experience. We’re now extending this to customers, and we feel it is a real proposition here for them to save money as well as have high reliability,” Vittal told ANI.
“We’re also running our homegrown software platforms. We run all our businesses and customer journeys through that. We’ve extended those also to customers,” he added.
He further said that they won some multi-million-dollar deals — one in Singapore with SingTel, and in the Philippines with Globe Telecom.
“We are having many more conversations with others…,” he said, without getting into specifics.
The cloud market is very large and is also growing rapidly — at almost 15-20 per cent year after year, he noted, affirming the business opportunity in this domain.
“We feel that more and more applications will go to the cloud and therefore this is a timely launch in that sense,” Vittal noted.
