Posted by Bangalore: Global technology infra services provider Kyndryl and Microsoft have announced a joint effort to enable the adoption of enterprise-grade generative AI solutions for businesses on the Microsoft Cloud.
The two companies will rapidly design, develop and drive new generative AI innovations and solutions across their enterprises. Their partnership will leverage Joint Innovation Centres along with Kyndryl’s patent portfolio in data and AI, and its access to Microsoft 365 Copilot, Azure OpenAI Service and Microsoft Fabric.
Kyndryl said it is also committing to utilizing the Kyndryl University for Microsoft to educate thousands of Kyndryl employees on new Microsoft AI technologies.
With this collaboration, Kyndryl is launching an AI-readiness program within Kyndryl Consult that is dedicated to responsibly exploring the adoption of generative AI solutions. Highly skilled Kyndryl experts will help new and existing customers build a trusted data foundation and navigate the complexity of using new generative AI technologies.
Leveraging its deep domain and enterprise-grade AI expertise – spanning across industries and solution areas – the company will help customers evaluate the benefits of generative AI through key service areas, including collaborative innovation, enhanced customer and employee experience, building a strong data foundation and execution and management.
“Kyndryl is creating a trusted environment for organisations to explore the benefits and value it can bring to organisations as they look to drive efficiencies, grow and deliver greater business outcomes,” said Stephen Leonard, Global Alliances and Partnerships Leader, Kyndryl.
“With over three decades of experience in delivering data services, advanced security capabilities and managing complex IT environments, we are well-positioned to work alongside Microsoft to help organisations confidently apply generative AI at scale and positively impact their businesses while being mindful of known risks,” added Leonard.
“Together with Kyndryl, we have a shared vision to responsibly enable our customers to jointly explore, design and deploy generative AI solutions across their enterprises, and to do it in a way that enables them to realise business value,” said Stephen Boyle, GM Global Partner Solutions, Microsoft.
“As a leader in the delivery of generative AI and data platforms, we believe partners such as Kyndryl are critical to the successful use of emerging technologies for business,” added Boyle.
