IT services provider Wipro has selected Google Cloud as the cloud provider for its enterprise-wide SAP footprint to advance its digital transformation.
The partnership with Google Cloud aims to bring SAP applications and workloads to the cloud to support over 1.8 lakh employees at Wipro.
The Bangalore-based IT company said it will transform mission-critical SAP applications with Google Cloud and roll out G Suite into its workplace productivity tool set.
“It is critical that our core systems and technologies are running on intelligent and modern platforms that encompass the needs of the future,” said Bhanumurthy BM, president and chief operating officer of Wipro.
“This transformation programme will help us run our most business-critical workloads and applications with speed and agility, and to support our customers more effectively”.
Wipro will modernise and transform its core ERP (enterprise resource planning) system to SAP’s flagship S/4HANA and migrate the SAP workloads onto Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
The company will also leverage the advanced intelligent ERP from SAP, along with the flexibility and scalability of GCP, for hosting SAP Workloads.
“Wipro is embracing digital transformation at speed and scale. By modernizing their core systems and technologies with Google Cloud, they have a powerful and scalable foundation to accelerate their strategic enterprise priorities and build for the future,” said Thomas Kurian, CEO of Google Cloud.
