HCL Technologies has launched a dedicated HCL Cisco Ecosystem Unit, which will be engaged in creating solutions to expedite the digital journeys for its clients.

The Indian IT services provider said that it has a long 360-degree partnership with Cisco that has helped enterprises to speed up their digital transformation journeys by enabling them to invent and innovate. HCL Technologies said that this has been possible by making use of the advanced technologies from Cisco and its own transformative services capabilities.

By leveraging Cisco technologies, HCL Cisco Ecosystem Unit will create leading-edge competencies, solutions, as well as business outcome models. Its objective will be to ensure the success of complex transformation programs centering on software-defined network transformation, digital workplace, network-as-a-service, hyper-automation, multi-cloud modernization, security, private 5G, optimized application experience, and telco modernization.

Oliver Tuszik — Senior Vice President of Cisco Systems Global Partner Sales said: “As organizations increase their post-pandemic application, network and cloud investments, they will need a strategy to deliver integrated secure cloud experiences to their customers with flexible consumption models.

“The HCL Cisco Ecosystem Unit – anchored by HCL’s industry cloud consulting and managed services with Cisco’s cross-architecture solutions – is able to help organizations connect, secure and automate to accelerate their digital agility in a cloud-first world.”

Besides, HCL Cisco Ecosystem Unit will be in line with the #HCLCloudSmart strategy as an important pillar of its ecosystem operating model to enable customers in making intelligent choices for establishing a strong and sustainable digital foundation that taps Cisco’s multiple platforms and solutions and the company’s own transformational services consumable in a XaaS (anything-as-a-service) model.

Kalyan Kumar — Chief Technology Officer and Head of HCL Technologies Ecosystems said: “We are pleased to announce the launch of our Cisco Ecosystem Unit, in line with our strategy of ecosystem-based innovation and growth.

“Together, we will invest in creating joint solutions and IPs to enable our clients to derive the benefits of digitization faster and easier in a secure way. The unit will further boost the #HCLCloudSmart strategy by providing industry-specific, full-stack offerings that help enterprises adapt to the demands of today’s dynamic business environment.”

Last month, HCL Technologies had won a contract from Munich Re to help the German reinsurance group create a next-generation digital workplace for its employees.
