Wipro launches Cloud Bot to accelerate enterprises' cloud journey

Wipro has launched a digital consultant,Wipro Holmes Cloud Bot to help clients with their cloud placement decisions.

The bot is designed to hasten cloud assessment projects for enterprises, thereby substantially reducing the time taken, from months to weeks. This ensures that clients receive high quality advisory services backed by experiential learnings.

The Wipro Holmes Cloud Bot uses a gamified natural language processing (NLP)-based chat interface to have an intelligent interaction with stakeholders to enrich the data for cloud analysis.

Holmes represents Wipro’s integrated automation capabilities across infrastructure, applications and business process services, delivered through a comprehensive blend of tasks, processes, and cognitive technologies.

The bot leverages applications and infrastructure data residing in multiple data sources in the client’s environment, and facilitates collaboration between stakeholders from IT and business teams-which helps in analyzing and predicting viable cloud placement decisions, based on rule-based algorithms and past learning to accelerate the client’s cloud journey.

The bot also solves the complexities of collating undocumented information about an enterprise’s technology application architectures, risk management and compliance landscape. It derives insights from this data to define cloud strategy and offer optimal application choices.

Kiran Desai, Senior Vice-President and Head - Global Infrastructure Services, Wipro Limited said, “We are currently seeing a convergence of technologies that is driving business value for clients. The Wipro Holmes Cloud Bot combines cloud, artificial intelligence (AI) and collaborative technologies, which we believe, are catalysts in accelerating transformation.”
