Meeting the needs of the customer with AI and data-driven solutions
With its framework and capabilities, Wipro has successfully supported a banking and financial services customer as it needed to adopt a new data strategy following an era of significant growth. As the company anticipated subsequent growth, it was essential they adapted to the new increased loads of data they would have to deal with.
To increase efficiency, visibility and collaboration, the company looked for a platform that would improve its ability to process large data sets while scaling to meet growth projections.
Wipro was able to develop a platform suited to the company with the aim to facilitate seamless platform modernisation and faster delivery. The platform was based on solution accelerator IntelliProc to automate big data workload conversion to a Spark equivalent and deploy it into Azure Databricks.
The Databricks platform was set up to ingest data from various sources and perform analytics, eliminating the problem of siloed data.
This solution delivered measurable benefits to the customer. Team productivity increased by 20%, infrastructure costs were lowered by 25% and led to 40% effort savings.
Recently, the company announced it had launched a 40,000 sq.ft. Innovation Studio in Texas which plans to leverage Wipro’s deep reservoir of IPs, patents, and innovation DNA.
The studio will also draw from a diverse portfolio of transformative technologies including artificial intelligence, 5G, mixed reality/metaverse, blockchain, tokenization, multi-cloud and edge computing, crowdsourcing, and robotics in collaboration with leading technology partners to experiment with new solutions and serve clients.
