KOTA SUBRAHMANYA
CEO, CENTRAL DATA SYSTEMS PVT. LTD.
Subrahmanya highlighted key insights from the forum, emphasizing the growing importance of AI, cybersecurity, and digital infrastructure for partners. Having attended the forum since its inception, Subrahmanya noted that while the format remains channel-focused, the relevance of emerging technologies has significantly increased, particularly in AI adoption and readiness for enterprise demands.
He explained that AI is reshaping Central Data Systems’ service offerings, with the company seeking vendor- led solutions that create new revenue streams while enhancing customer relevance. A significant barrier, he noted, is the skill gap in AI and digital transformation, which he believes vendors and OEMs can help bridge to enable partners to meet complex customer requirements.
Subrahmanya said Central Data Systems differentiates itself by addressing not only IT infrastructure but also non-IT aspects, including power solutions, data center builds, and sustainability initiatives. Looking ahead, he identified AI, cybersecurity, and data center infrastructure as critical focus areas for partners to stay competitive, underscoring the opportunities for growth through strategic OEM collaborations.
