Commenting on the launch, Anand Sankaran, senior vice-president and business head, India and Middle East, Wipro, said, “Wipro has been addressing the IT needs of customers for over two decades now. To complete our portfolio of offerings, we felt the need to offer best-in-class data centres, as well, which resulted in the launch of Wipro Enterprise Data Centre (WEDC). Enterprise customers today are seeking services beyond simple hosting and co-location, and this is a very strategic move by us and positions us uniquely to cater to the lifecycle needs of enterprises as a single face.”
