Highlighting the significance of the tie-up with HPE, Wipro Chief Executive Abidali Neemuchwala said the consumption-based model would allow the company to offer variable pricing for the IT infrastructure value chain. “Enterprises need an agile IT foundation to scale up and accommodate growth. Our collaboration with Wipro delivers the economics of a public-cloud experience with the control and performance benefits of on-premises IT,” said HPE global sales Vice-President Olivier Suinat on the occasion. The partnership was signed by Neemuchwala and HPE Chief Executive Meg Whitman at the ‘HPE Discover 2017’ event at Las Vegas in Nevada state.
