How has your organization adopted cloud computing?

Srivastava: We are already working on private cloud. We have integrated our 138 locations with private clouds over MPLS connectivity and all our seven units are on cloud. In fact, three years ago we had invested huge funds in building our private clouds and today we are seamlessly connected at all locations.

Which is the emerging technology that would impact enterprises?

Srivastava: I think the future lies in cloud because the investment we made in the past three years was huge and it's now paying off. It's cost efficient too. And now, even IT companies are using cloud computing technology.

Do you see any change in the IT budget within your organization?

Srivastava: Our IT budget will increase in the years to come. Last year, we had invested around Rs 20 crore entirely on cloud and now we are investing in ERP and CRM solutions, which will be implemented in the next six months. For this year, we will further invest Rs 20 crore, so our IT budgets will definitely increase.
