MUMBAI — February 2026 — Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has partnered with AMD to introduce Helios, a state-of-the-art rack-scale AI architecture, to India, aiming to accelerate the country’s high-performance computing and artificial intelligence capabilities.
The collaboration will integrate AMD’s advanced AI accelerators and compute platforms into TCS’s infrastructure and enterprise offerings, enabling large-scale AI model training and inference within India. The move is positioned as a significant step toward strengthening domestic AI infrastructure and supporting enterprise and public-sector digital transformation initiatives.
Helios is designed as a rack-scale architecture, meaning compute, networking, storage, and cooling are engineered together as a unified system. This approach improves efficiency, performance density, and scalability compared to traditional server-by-server deployments. By optimizing the full rack environment, the platform is built to handle demanding AI workloads such as large language models, data analytics, and real-time processing.
Dr. Lisa Su, Chair and CEO, AMD, said, "AI adoption is accelerating from pilots to large-scale deployments, and that shift requires a new blueprint for compute infrastructure. With 'Helios,' we are delivering an open, rack-scale AI platform designed for performance, efficiency, and long-term flexibility. Together with TCS, we are enabling enterprises across India to deploy AI at scale today while building the compute foundation of tomorrow.”
K. Krithivasan, MD and CEO, TCS, said, “This collaboration lays the foundation for AMD’s first ‘Helios’ powered AI infrastructure in India. By combining our strengths in AI, connectivity, sustainable power, and advanced data center engineering, we are poised to deliver state-of-the-art infrastructure solutions for AI companies and global enterprises. We are thrilled to deepen our longstanding partnership with AMD as we expand our participation in the AI ecosystem – Infrastructure to Intelligence.”
TCS said the partnership will help Indian enterprises access next-generation AI compute without relying solely on overseas infrastructure. The companies aim to support sectors including financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, and government, where AI adoption is rapidly expanding.
AMD emphasized that its high-performance AI accelerators are engineered to deliver strong performance-per-watt efficiency, a key consideration as data center energy demand rises. Combining AMD hardware with TCS’s integration and managed services capabilities is expected to streamline deployment and operational management for customers.
The initiative aligns with India’s broader push to strengthen sovereign AI and digital infrastructure capabilities. By bringing rack-scale AI architecture into the domestic ecosystem, TCS and AMD are positioning India to compete more effectively in global AI development and deployment.
The Helios architecture will be rolled out through TCS’s data center and cloud environments, with enterprise customers expected to gain access as deployments scale in the coming months.
