TCS and AMD will co-develop India’s first open ROCm-powered Helios rack-scale AI platform, giving hyperscalers and enterprises a sovereign, non-proprietary compute foundation for large-scale AI deployments.
Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) are co-developing a rack-scale AI infrastructure design in India built on AMD’s ‘Helios’ architecture, positioning open software at the core of the country’s next wave of sovereign AI factories.
Delivered through TCS subsidiary HyperVault AI Data Center Limited, the collaboration will introduce an AI-ready data centre blueprint supporting up to 200 MW of capacity. The platform targets hyperscalers, AI companies and enterprises seeking faster, localised AI build-outs while reducing reliance on closed hardware–software ecosystems.
Helios combines AMD Instinct MI455X GPUs, next-generation EPYC “Venice” CPUs, Pensando Vulcano NICs and the open ROCm software ecosystem, creating a rack-scale, performance-optimised and energy-efficient stack designed for flexibility and long-term interoperability.
The deployment marks AMD’s first Helios-powered AI infrastructure in India and builds on an earlier TCS–AMD modernisation partnership. HyperVault, established in 2025, aims to deliver GW-scale, secure and reliable AI-ready infrastructure nationwide.
“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,” said K. Krithivasan, MD and CEO, TCS.
“We are thrilled to deepen our longstanding partnership with AMD as we expand our participation in the AI ecosystem – Infrastructure to Intelligence,” he added.
“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,” added Lisa Su, Chair and CEO, AMD.
