Wipro implements Managed File Transfer as a Service on AWS

Global information technology, consulting and business process services company, Wipro, has implemented Managed File Transfer as a Service (MFTaaS) Software on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) for enterprises to help them digitally integrate with their clients, partners and employees. Managed file transfer handles the secure transfer of data from one computer to another through a network and is marketed to corporate enterprises as an alternative to using ad-hoc file transfer solutions, such as FTP, HTTP and others. Because of federal regulations, MFT products have to meet strict regulatory compliance standards and they include mechanisms to ensure a higher level of security to keep information private.

“Our commitment to invest in next-generation cloud technologies, co-innovate with companies like AWS and create platforms which can deliver the promise of cloud are key business priorities. Working with AWS as an active member of the AWS Partner Network (APN) helps us to simplify the client’s move to cloud and offer unparalleled value in terms of security, compliance, agility, and scalability,” says, Bhanumurthy BM, President and Chief Operating Officer, Wipro.

Wipro claims that MFTaaS platform handles millions of file transfers across a portfolio of global clients and is one of Wipro’s most successful enterprise SaaS Platforms. The company anticipates that the MFTaaS platform can potentially reduce up to 30 per cent in total cost of ownership for its clients vis-a-vis traditional deployments.

Terry Wise, Vice President, Worldwide Partner Ecosystem, Amazon Web Services, says, “Wipro’s Managed File Transfer platform is a good example of an APN Partner creating a unique and innovative proposition to solve customers’ business challenges by leveraging the power of cloud and the rapid pace of innovation at AWS. We are excited to work with Wipro to help clients gain the true benefit of the cloud. At AWS, we rely on our APN partners like Wipro to create solutions and platforms deployed on AWS that help customers solve key business problems.”

Wipro’s AWS practice helps global clients seamlessly adopt cloud technologies, develop cloud native apps and provide expertise in cloud migration. Wipro has been a Premier Consulting Partner in the APN for four consecutive years.
