The company is going to offer this service in partnership with Hewlett Packard (HP).

HP will offer infrastructure-as-a-service and software-as-a-service to small businesses of sizes as low as five employees in a company to 500 people. HP will also take care of security concerns on bring-your-own-device for employees with Airtel using its own data centers situated in the country. 

Cloud services are part of Airtel’s business-to-business (B2B) vertical and the partnership with HP would benefit both the companies to create more ecosystem and growth.
