Information technology (IT) majors, Infosys, Cognizant, Accenture, and LTIMindtree, among others, have committed over $1.5 billion in training, development, and industry use cases to support Oracle’s newly launched AI Data Platform.
The platform unifies data, analytics, and Generative AI (Gen AI) into a single foundation, allowing enterprises to connect AI models with business data and workflows. This is particularly important as the platform integrates chip-maker Nvidia’s computing infrastructure, giving enterprises access to the latest generation of GPUs for high-performance workloads.
“By unifying data and simplifying the entire AI lifecycle, Oracle AI Data Platform is the most comprehensive foundation for enterprises seeking to harness the power of AI with confidence, security, and agility,” said TK Anand, Executive Vice President, Oracle, during his keynote address at the company’s flagship AI World 2025 event.
Bengaluru-headquartered Infosys called the platform a “top strategic priority,” with Executive Vice President Dinesh Rao saying the company is building Gen AI and Agentic AI use cases under its Topaz AI-first offering.
Infosys has invested $140 million in R&D during FY25, and plans to expand investments in Oracle’s AI capabilities over the next few years.
Meanwhile, Cognizant, which announced a $1 billion AI investment last year, said Oracle’s platform is a “strategic component” in clients’ AI transformation journeys. “We’re training over 1,000 associates within the next 24 months and developing 50 industry-specific agentic use cases leveraging Oracle’s platform,” said Naveen Sharma, Senior Vice President at Cognizant, in a virtual address.
The world’s largest IT company, Accenture, with a $3 billion AI investment, is embedding Oracle capabilities into its AI Refinery, built on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. “This advancement will allow clients to unlock the full value of Oracle capabilities from day one,” said Eric Brown, Managing Director at Accenture.
LTIMindtree announced a $200 million investment and plans to train over 1,000 experts to support the platform. “Leaders often wonder why AI pilots stall. The answer is usually: siloed data and lagging integration. Oracle’s AI Data Platform changes this by uniting data governance, analytics, and AI in one solution,” said Newin Durai, Executive Vice President and Global Head of Oracle Services at LTIMindtree.
Oracle said the combined $1.5 billion investment from partners will include training over 8,000 practitioners and developing more than 100 industry-specific AI use cases across sectors such as manufacturing, utilities, financial services, and healthcare.
By consolidating AI, analytics, and governance, Oracle aims to make the AI Data Platform the core infrastructure layer for enterprise-grade AI adoption.
