Tata Communications has unveiled CloudLyte, a fully-automated edge computing platform designed to help future-ready enterprises thrive in a data-driven world.

As businesses become hyperconnected and emerging technologies such as 5G and IoT gain greater traction, the need for real-time data processing, low latency applications and intelligent decision-making is vital. CloudLyte is said to be at the forefront of edge computing and caters to the needs of global enterprises through its multi access, cloud and infrastructure agnostic architecture. 

Through its in-a-box approach, CloudLyte provides enterprises with the platform, infrastructure, network, managed services and the use case as a unified offering. It provides enterprises with deployment within minutes, and effortless scaling as required, thus futureproofing investments.

With real-time inferencing and auto scaling, the platform seamlessly extends cloud capabilities to the edge, bringing in the agility and flexibility of the cloud. CloudLyte (www.tatacommunications.com/solutions/edge) also manages edge resources centrally for a seamless experience and has built-in security with features such as zero-trust architecture and layered defences, simplifying enterprise operations, increasing efficiency and driving business growth.

“In a hyperconnected world, businesses increasingly rely on resilient, performant and secure edge computing capabilities,” said Neelakantan Venkataraman, vice president at Tata Communications. “These are essential for managing the immense volumes of raw data generated and processing them swiftly and efficiently to enable rapid decision-making and foster accelerated business transformation. By bringing the cloud experience to edge, CloudLyte allows global enterprises to harness the full potential of cloud through a well-integrated cloud fabric. With CloudLyte, we’re not just building the future, we’re redefining it. From AI-driven predictive maintenance to retail analytics, the potential is limitless.”

Kerem Arsal, senior principal analyst at Omdia, added: “CloudLyte fills a significant gap in the edge market with its infrastructure- and cloud-agnostic approach to computing, and its ability to support a wide range of access networks for connectivity, such as SD-WAN, private 5G and wifi. Cutting across IT and OT silos, it effectively unifies the management, provisioning and orchestration of resources and applications in multi-cloud environments. Yet, it is also modular to give customers the flexibility to craft their own solutions depending on their existing settings and desired outcomes. As an elegant and holistic platform that fuses connectivity and computing, CloudLyte significantly reduces the complexity of edge deployments for many innovative use cases.”
