Air India migrates Its IT infrastructure to Microsoft Cloud, all set to launch innovations powered by advanced data analytics and generative AI
Indian carrier Air India announced that it has migrated its computational workload to the Cloud and shut down its two data centres in New Delhi and Mumbai. The Tata Group-owned airline announced that the move will help Air India save $1 million annually.
“At Air India, we have adopted ‘Cloud-only’ as our computational infrastructure philosophy. For us, Cloud is not just about cost savings and operational efficiencies but is a fundamental way to reimagine computing,” said Satya Ramaswamy, chief digital and technology officer at Air India.
“Air India’s successful migration to Microsoft Azure shows the power and adaptability of the Microsoft Cloud and how we can effectively support leaders in the global airline industry like Air India,” said Puneet Chandok, president at Microsoft India & South Asia.
The airline said to launch several innovations in its customer-facing channels and employee experiences.
“These innovations will be powered by cloud capabilities in advanced data analytics and AI, such as Generative AI, that can now be embedded seamlessly all through the company’s applications,” Air India said.
