The Drone Federation of India this week announced its tie-up with Amazon Web Services as its preferred Cloud service. This move was initiated to boost the progress and innovation around creating a perfect drone ecosystem in India.
It is reported that DFI, which is a non-profit industry body, will work with AWS to help provide a scalable, nimble and safe Cloud infrastructure for drone manufacturers, application developers and operators to develop drone applications and accelerate time-to-market in India.
Rahat Kulshreshtha, President, DFI said that AWS was a natural choice for us which will help drone manufacturers and developers as its artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities, open data sets and technical prowess are simply unmatched.
He also added that if they want to see food and medicine deliveries, autonomous aerial transportation, large scale business transformation in mining, roads, and disaster management via drones, they will require the power of cloud computing and strong data-based workflows.
