Built for ease, control and the future, the Cloud fabric seamlessly integrates IaaS, PaaS, AI Platform, Security, Cloud Connectivity, and professional services into a single, intelligent ecosystem. This eliminates management complexity, reduces operational costs and ensures enterprises can scale effortlessly — without vendor lock-in. With a transparent pricing model, built-in FinOps automation, and multi-Cloud flexibility, it delivers up to 30% cost savings while optimising workload performance. Compared with large Cloud service providers, it reduces costs by 15-25%, with no data egress charges or hidden fees.
As enterprises accelerate AI adoption, Tata Communications Vayu AI Cloud provides on-demand access to high-performance NVIDIA GPUs, eliminating costly infrastructure investments and enabling seamless AI model training, fine-tuning, and deployment at scale. It also features an AI Studio — including an AI workbench, model garden, and responsible AI frameworks — to accelerate innovation. Additionally, integrated Generative AI and AIOps automate operations and enhance intelligent monitoring, while AI-driven DevOps tools and advanced training platforms empower businesses to deploy AI efficiently, reducing complexity and controlling costs.
Tata Communications Vayu’s PaaS services further simplify application deployment with serverless computing, auto scaling, and managed databases. Its AI/ML platform streamlines model training and deployment, while built-in API management, microservices and Integrated DevOps tools automate workflows — enabling enterprises to innovate rapidly without infrastructure management burdens.
Unlike traditional Cloud solutions that require managing multiple vendors and platforms, Tata Communications Vayu offers a fully integrated Cloud ecosystem spanning compute, storage, AI, security, and Cloud connectivity. Whether enterprises need high-performance virtual machines, scalable storage, or AI-powered automation, it delivers a seamless platform to build, deploy, and manage workloads.
Recognising that no two businesses are alike, Tata Communications collaborates with enterprises to design purpose-built Cloud strategies that balance public, private, and on-premises deployments. From government to financial services to retail, Tata Communications Vayu ensures Cloud infrastructure aligns with industry-specific requirements, and long-term growth aspirations.
The fabric guarantees seamless data accessibility across different environments — on-premises, in the Cloud, or at the Edge — while maintaining data integrity throughout its lifecycle. Featuring precise access controls, data masking, consent management, and protection of personal information, the robust framework safeguards sensitive enterprise data, offering businesses peace of mind.
Tata Communications Vayu also features a zero-trust security framework, advanced identity and access controls, and compliance with key regulations — including the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Rules 2025, RBI, SEBI, IRDAI, and the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY). Enterprises can operate confidently, knowing their data is encrypted both at rest and in transit, protected against evolving cyber threats.
Finally, in an era where sustainability is a business imperative, Tata Communications Vayu leads with carbon-neutral Cloud options and energy-efficient data centres. Tata Communications plans to introduce direct liquid cooling — an advanced technology optimising heat management for high-performance computing — allowing enterprises to achieve ESG goals while benefitting from superior Cloud performance.
A.S. Lakshminarayanan, MD & CEO, Tata Communications, said: “As the digital era accelerates, the need for enterprise Cloud and AI solutions that balance performance, cost, and sustainability has never been greater. Tata Communications Vayu is more than a product — it will pioneer a new way forward for businesses to integrate, uncomplicate and innovate.”
Bhaskar Gorti, Executive Vice President, Cloud and Cybersecurity Services, Tata Communications added: “Tata Communications Vayu signifies a transformational shift. Enterprises today need more than just basic Cloud services, and our latest offering is the beginning of a new chapter in Cloud evolution — one where technology is no longer an obstacle but an enabler of limitless possibilities.”
