Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a global leader in IT services, consulting, and business solutions, has signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) to accelerate the development of India’s sovereign cloud ecosystem.
As India focuses on self-reliant and secure digital infrastructure, this collaboration aims to deliver scalable, AI-enabled cloud platforms that comply with India’s data localization mandates and support the digital transformation of critical public sector services.
Under this partnership, TCS and C-DAC will integrate indigenous innovations into TCS’ sovereign cloud stack. This collaboration ensures the secure and compliant hosting of government applications, including e-Sanjeevani, Dial 112, and workloads from central ministries. The initiative also enhances security, compliance, and performance across key sectors like healthcare, defence, smart cities, and BFSI (Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance).
The MoU reflects a broader strategic goal to reduce dependence on global hyperscalers by building a robust, future-ready sovereign cloud ecosystem driven by OpenStack and indigenous technologies. Through joint efforts and engagement with public sector entities, TCS and C-DAC aim to make sovereign cloud platforms the default choice for India’s digital transformation journey.
For nearly six decades, TCS has been at the forefront of India’s technology revolution, supporting nation-building initiatives and creating digital public infrastructure that impacts millions of citizens daily. TCS works closely with various government ministries and agencies, enabling services that touch the lives of nearly seven out of ten Indians. From digitally empowering stock exchanges and financial institutions to enhancing passport issuance systems, health insurance, and defence pensions, TCS continues to deliver citizen-centric services at scale.
