DataSynapse, TCS tie up to deliver grid-computing solutions

DataSynapse Inc, provider of grid-computing solutions for the virtual enterprise, and Tata Consultancy Services
(TCS), have entered into a strategic alliance to offer TCS' international customers and prospects grid-computing software and services. 

Under the terms of the agreement, TCS will promote, support and implement DataSynapse's GridServer software, providing customers with a highly scalable IT infrastructure able to solve application processing problems in real time for improved productivity, system optimization and business gain. 

Offering end-to-end application development and maintenance services over the entire application lifecycle, TCS consultants will be trained by DataSynapse's professional services team to identify, grid-enable and transition into production third-party applications. In turn, DataSynapse will be called upon to offer its services to existing TCS customers who would benefit from implementing a virtual, scalable application infrastructure. 

"TCS offers high-quality services and solutions that will have a significant impact on our clients' business," said TCS Technology Programs VP, Dr Gautam
Shroff. "We have identified grid-computing as an emerging technology that will become increasingly important for commercial business applications, and DataSynapse as a leading technology provider in this space.
TCS' Technology Innovation Lab will integrate DataSynapse's GridServer into some of the frameworks that we use for customer projects," he added.
