Overview
- Located within the India Systems Development Lab campus in Bengaluru, the facility is IBM’s first infrastructure innovation centre in the country.
- IBM says the centre integrates hybrid cloud capabilities, advanced infrastructure technologies and AI to speed development and deployment of secure, scalable enterprise systems.
- Designed as a collaborative engineering hub, it will co-create solutions with clients, independent software vendors, global system integrators, global capability centres and other partners.
- ISDL leadership says bringing processor design, firmware, operating systems and virtualization teams into one building will increase innovation speed and coordination.
- IBM frames the launch as a long-term investment in India, citing research showing 58% of organisations raised infrastructure spending, 2025 budgets are projected to grow 19%, and 43% are establishing or planning AI centres of excellence.
