TCS launches India's first Oracle AI Data platform lab in Kolkata

The lab aims to address key customer challenges, including fragmented data systems, slow analytics cycles, limited AI scalability, and operational inefficiencies. It will utilize the Oracle AI Data Platform, which integrates Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Oracle Autonomous AI Database, and OCI Enterprise AI, to make enterprise data AI-ready and facilitate the deployment of AI-powered applications and automation at scale.

Sudipto Ray, Vice President and Global Head of Oracle Practice at TCS, highlighted that the facility is engineered to expedite the process from initial ideation through experimentation to full-scale deployment.

Arvind Mehra, Head of Alliances and Channels Technology at Oracle India, emphasized that this collaboration will empower customers to translate data into tangible business outcomes by leveraging AI-driven insights and intelligent automation. This strategic move underscores TCS's commitment to advancing its capabilities in AI engineering, intelligent data platforms, and advanced analytics. The company further noted its extensive pool of 26,000 Oracle-skilled professionals across India dedicated to supporting clients' AI endeavors.
