Santa Clara, CA-based Intel Corporation considers India as a high-growth market for its data-center business, because of demand from verticals such as high-performance computing, public sector, financial services and the start-up ecosystem.
Prakash Mallya, director – Asia, Data Center Group, had this to say to BusinessLine: Asia is a buzzing market for our data-center business, and India is a high growth-opportunity market for Intel, especially with the digital infrastructure build-out, which the government is driving, gaining momentum. Two years ago, Intel’s data-center business globally registered 18 percent growth, and last year, we saw 11 percent growth in revenue. We expect to maintain double-digit growth rates in this business.
He added that Intel will be investing significantly in all the Digital India-related solutions, such as IndiaStack, UID and eGovernance 2.0, all of which represent huge workloads that the data-center business will address.
