HCL and Google Cloud expand partnership, Bring HCL Commerce platform to Google Cloud

HCL and Google have expanded on their partnership to take HCL's software offerings to Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

To start, the HCL Commerce offering will be made available on top of the Google Cloud Platform. HCL also intends to leverage GCP's Anthos offering for hybrid and multi-cloud deployments of the HCL commerce platform.

Corporate Vice President and Head of HCL Software, Darren Oberst, said, "The collaboration between Google Cloud and HCL Commerce is helping customers rapidly execute their digital transformation strategy that is rooted in the new normal. With the support of our global implementation partner ecosystem, we can now deliver a proven, comprehensive commerce solution across all industries, handling the challenges of today and in the future."

Corporate Vice President, Global Ecosystem at Google Cloud, Kevin Ichhpurani, said, "It is more important than ever for firms spanning all industries to deliver strong, customer-centric eCommerce experiences. We’re proud that Google Cloud infrastructure will power HCL Commerce, helping businesses leverage the elasticity and reliability of Google Cloud and ultimately delivering positive eCommerce experiences for customers around the world."

HCL Commerce platform customers can now benefit from Google Cloud's global reach, security, and elasticity, notes the announcement.

To develop IP and MVPs on Google Cloud, HCL has established dedicated Google Cloud Native Labs in New York, London, and the New Delhi area to support their customers.   

In November 2019, HCL Technologies set up a dedicated business unit for Google Cloud. Both HCL and Google planned to accelerate digital transformation for enterprises with Google cloud adoption. Previously, HCL partnered with IBM to accelerate the adoption of the Hybrid Cloud Strategy for its enterprise customers.
