TCS and AMD partner to help enterprises scale AI from pilots to production

Tata Consultancy Services has announced a strategic collaboration with AMD aimed at helping enterprises scale artificial intelligence adoption from pilot projects to production deployments.

In a joint statement, the companies said the partnership will combine TCS’s domain expertise and systems integration capabilities with AMD’s high-performance computing and AI product portfolio. The work will focus on supporting customers as they modernise legacy environments, build secure and high-performance digital workplaces, and accelerate innovation across cloud-to-edge workloads.

The companies plan to co-develop industry-specific AI and generative AI solutions, as well as frameworks designed to help organisations move more quickly from experimentation to deployment at scale. They said the collaboration will span hybrid cloud and edge environments, enabling enterprises to run AI workloads efficiently across distributed infrastructures.

“AI adoption is accelerating, and unlocking its potential requires a new scale of high-performance computing and deep collaboration across the industry,” said Lisa Su, chair and chief executive officer of AMD. She added that AMD is building an open, end-to-end compute foundation for enterprise AI and that the work with TCS is intended to help customers translate AI innovation into new growth opportunities across industries.

TCS chief executive officer and managing director K. Krithivasan said the collaboration is designed to help customers progress from proof-of-concept projects to scaled deployments. He said the companies will co-create industry-specific generative AI solutions and support modernisation across hybrid cloud and edge environments.

The firms highlighted several priority sectors for joint development. In life sciences, use cases include drug discovery and research acceleration. In manufacturing, the focus will include cognitive quality engineering and smart manufacturing. In banking, financial services and insurance, the companies pointed to applications such as intelligent risk management.

TCS said it will work with AMD to deliver tailored accelerators, frameworks and best practices to improve AI performance across both training and inference workloads. The collaboration also covers workplace transformation, with TCS planning to integrate Ryzen CPU-powered client solutions.

For data centre and high-performance computing environments, TCS said it will leverage AMD EPYC CPUs, AMD Instinct GPUs and AI accelerators. The companies added that AMD’s embedded computing portfolio, including adaptive system-on-chips and field-programmable gate arrays, will support edge innovation, inference and industrial digitalisation.

The partners said the collaboration is intended to provide enterprises with a clearer path to deploying AI at scale while modernising core technology platforms across industries.
