East Brunswick, New Jersey, USA and Bangalore, India – August 05, 2020: Wipro Limited (NYSE: WIT, BSE: 507685, NSE: WIPRO), a leading global information technology, consulting and business process services company, today announced that it has been positioned as a Leader in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Data Center Outsourcing and Hybrid Infrastructure Managed Services, Asia Pacific. The report, authored by DD Mishra, Claudio Da Rold, To Chee Eng, David Groombridge was published on June 23, 2020. Wipro has been positioned as a Leader in this research report for the second consecutive year.
The report highlights that “This Magic Quadrant evaluates the abilities of service providers to deliver DCMS — including data center outsourcing, HIMS, private cloud services, mainframe services, ERP hosting, data center transformation, cloud migration services, edge DCMS and other IUS. Services are enabled by RIM services, intelligent automation services and software-defined infrastructure (SDI).”
According to Gartner analysts, “By 2021, many CIOs will fail to capitalize on technology innovation that could reduce the cost of data center outsourcing services up to 50%. By 2023, 90% of large enterprises will prefer nonlinear, more rapid and agile methods for evaluation and selection of infrastructure and communications service providers, up from 35% currently.”
Kiran Desai, Senior Vice President and Global Head, Cloud and Infrastructure Services, Wipro Limited said, “We are excited to be positioned as a Leader for the second consecutive year. We think this validates our capabilities in Data Center and Cloud solutions including modernization, migration, Edge/Internet of Things hybrid infrastructure managed services and Intelligent automation powered by Wipro Holmes™. Our continued investment in technologies such as BoundaryLess Enterprise solution and our design-led business-first approach will continue to deliver business outcomes for our customers.”
