Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], July 16 : Sirius Digitech Limited, a joint venture between the Adani Group and Sirius International Holding (Sirius), a subsidiary of International Holding Company (IHC), has announced the signing of binding agreements for the acquisition of Coredge.io Private Limited, an AI and cloud platform company.
According to a press release, this acquisition will enable Sirius Digitech to provide cloud services that empower organizations to leverage sovereign cloud innovations while retaining sensitive data within their boundaries.
As nations increasingly prioritize data security, the ability to keep data within national borders, rather than relying solely on the public cloud, is becoming more crucial.
Sovereign Data Centers play a vital role in protecting sensitive information and maintaining national security, especially with the exponential growth in artificial intelligence-driven demand for computation and sovereign data stack.
Jeet Adani, Director of Adani Group, said, "As nations increasingly prioritise data security, it is more important than ever that organisations have the option to retain their data within national borders rather than relying solely on the public cloud.
He further added, "Sovereign Data Centers become extremely important for protecting sensitive information and maintaining national security, given the exponential growth in artificial intelligence-driven demand for computation and sovereign data stack."
"An additional benefit of this acquisition is our ability to put AI capabilities directly in the hands of organisations that require specialised sovereign cloud services for AI training and inferencing," Adani said.
