The HFCL Group has selected IBM to integrate and implement innovative blade server technology to help reduce TCO and ‘Go Green’ while increasing efficiency. This three-year agreement with IBM’s Systems and Technology Group includes the deployment of IBM BladeCentre technology and X3650 servers.

“Globally and in India IBM is the leading solutions provider to the telecommunications industry. We believe our expertise in this segment and breadth of products and services will help companies such as HFCL tackle the explosive Indian and global telecom market with the assurance that they have IBM at their side as they grow into the future,” said Mukul Mathur, Director – Systems & Technology Group – IBM India/South Asia.

“HFCL’s ambitious plans and its rapid expansion in the National scenario demands a robust, homogeneous and constrained data centre environment with long-term business critical applications. We wanted to partner with the best technology advisor in the industry in order to leverage their expertise, especially in the telecom sector. After re-evaluating our current infrastructure, we found IBM to be the best choice offering end-to-end solutions that addressed our IT needs fully,” said GD Singh, COO HFCL Infotel Limited.
