Wipro veteran Anand Sankaran joins Dell

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 24 Oktober 2013 | 21.43

BANGALORE: Anand Sankaran, who quit Wipro earlier this month, has joined Dell Services as its president and global head of its infrastructure and cloud computing business.

Suresh Vaswani, head of Dell's services business, told TOI that infrastructure services was one of the larger businesses within Dell Services and Sankaran would be leading a team of about 10,000 people.

"He is extremely well suited to this role," he said.

Sankaran was a senior vice president and head of global infrastructure services at Wipro at the time he quit. He was with Wipro for 24 years and was made head of the infrastructure services business in 2011. The business constitutes nearly a third of Wipro's revenues.

Sankaran and Vaswani had a long association in Wipro. Vaswani too was in Wipro for 25 years and was its joint CEO when he quit to join Dell in 2011.

Sankaran said he was excited to be in Dell. "It will be a challenging and interesting opportunity. Dell has strong capabilities around technology in infrastructure services, and has geo-presence and scale that few can match. It provides infrastructure services for small companies, mid-market and large enterprises. So I believe we can shake up the infrastructure business," he said. Sankaran holds a Bachelor degree in engineering from the Karnataka Regional Engineering College.

Dell is a $57 billion revenue company, and its services business accounts for $8.5 billion. Vaswani said he could not disclose the contribution made by the infrastructure services and cloud computing business. "We'll be deeply investing in this business. And our objective, unlike most IT service vendors, would not be to only outsource a company's infrastructure services, but would be also to migrate the infrastructure to a future state, so that it creates a very different customer experience," he said.

He said Dell would be able to do that also because of its traditional expertise in end-user devices, and the server, storage and networking business.
