WEKA has opened its India Center of Excellence in Bengaluru. The move signals major opportunity for Indian businesses seeking advanced AI infrastructure.
The new facility houses research, engineering, customer success, and sales teams, enhancing WEKA’s AI infrastructure offerings. This strategic expansion puts WEKA closer to India’s growing AI market.
Why It Matters Now
India’s AI ecosystem is accelerating rapidly. The Government’s IndiaAI Mission shows national commitment to AI advancement. WEKA’s timing aligns perfectly with this momentum.
Indian businesses now get direct access to enterprise-grade AI infrastructure. This levels the playing field with global competitors.
Strategic Advantage for Indian Businesses
WEKA’s NeuralMesh technology delivers significant competitive benefits. The system achieves over 90% GPU utilization rates. This translates to faster AI processing and lower costs.
Most AI storage systems waste computational power. WEKA’s approach maximizes every resource. Indian companies can run more AI workloads with existing hardware.
The technology also accelerates token throughput. This means faster AI model training and deployment. Speed matters in competitive markets.
Partnership with Local Leaders
WEKA partners with Yotta Data Services, a leading Indian AI cloud provider. Together, they power the Shakti Cloud platform.
This partnership provides on-demand GPU access for IndiaAI initiatives. Indian startups and enterprises get world-class infrastructure without massive upfront investment.
“India is a global powerhouse for innovation, where forward-thinking organizations are revolutionizing industries through breakthrough technology. I’m impressed with the Government’s IndiaAI Mission and proud that WEKA is helping to power Yotta’s groundbreaking Shakti Cloud to provide on-demand GPU access for IndiaAI,” said Liran Zvibel, CEO and cofounder at WEKA. “Bengaluru has proven to be an excellent choice for our India-based operations, providing WEKA with an exceptional talent pool and proximity to India’s thriving tech sector. We are excited to expand our presence here with our new Center of Excellence and look forward to leveraging this hub to drive greater value for customers across India and the APAC region.”
What Business Leaders Should Know
WEKA has operated in India since 2023. The company serves AI companies, cloud providers, IT services firms, and enterprises.
The new center expands this commitment significantly. Indian businesses get local support with global expertise.
Harsh Jaitly leads the India operations as General Manager. He brings over 20 years of experience from VMware and Avi Networks. This leadership ensures quality service delivery.
“Success with AI requires data infrastructure that can scale seamlessly with both today’s requirements and tomorrow’s possibilities while delivering uncompromising performance and efficiency,” said Jaitly. “Our new India Center of Excellence enables WEKA to provide exceptional support to our global customers in a true follow-the-sun service model while also tapping India’s exceptional engineering talent pool. We look forward to building key partnerships across India’s thriving technology ecosystem to foster world-class AI development.”
Market Impact in India
The center addresses a critical gap in India’s AI infrastructure. Many companies struggle with storage bottlenecks that slow AI innovation.
WEKA’s solution removes these constraints. Businesses can scale AI operations without infrastructure limitations.
The follow-the-sun support model means 24/7 assistance. Indian companies get immediate help when issues arise.
Cost and Energy Benefits
WEKA’s technology reduces both costs and energy consumption. Higher GPU utilization means better return on hardware investment.
Lower energy usage cuts operational expenses. This matters for cost-conscious Indian businesses.
The efficiency gains compound over time. Companies save money while accelerating AI initiatives.
WEKA’s Bengaluru expansion represents more than facility growth. It signals confidence in India’s AI potential and commitment to local success.
