BENGALURU: Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) is working in Israel’s public sector on several key digital transformation initiatives, including Project Nimbus which aims to migrate Israeli ministries and authorities’ operations and data to a safe and secure cloud environment.
It said as part of Nimbus, it has been selected by the country’s Ministry of Economy, Prime Minister’s Office, and Water Authority, among others, to drive their cloud transformations. TCS, which hosted Israel’s Minister of Economy and Industry Nir Barkat at its facility in Mumbai, said the meeting centered around strengthening cooperation between Israel’s government bodies and TCS.
Ananth Krishnan, chief technology officer, TCS, said, “TCS has a strong interest in Israeli technology, innovation, and start-up ecosystem. We see opportunities to partner with Israeli firms and government bodies for mutual benefit.”
