The acquisition also expands Driven’s strategic relationships and delivery capabilities across Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, and Microsoft Azure, enhancing the company’s ability to design, deploy, secure, and operate scalable multi-cloud AI-powered platforms and data-driven AI environments for enterprise customers.
Customers will benefit from expanded AI engineering expertise, faster innovation cycles, deeper multi-cloud integration capabilities, and accelerated deployment of AI-powered operational platforms spanning infrastructure, security, cloud modernization, AI operations, and next-generation application development.
