Tech Mahindra partners with Telefonica Germany to create a next-gen private cloud and PaaS offering. The multi-year deal focuses on accelerating cloud-native transformation and modernising telecom and enterprise workloads with an open, scalable platform.
Tech Mahindra has expanded its partnership with Telefonica Germany to build a next-generation private cloud platform and Platform-as-a-Service offering, aimed at accelerating cloud-native transformation and supporting telecom and enterprise workload modernisation.
According to a press release by the company, the multi-year engagement will focus on creating a scalable, open and future-ready digital infrastructure foundation. The platform will combine Tech Mahindra’s end-to-end platform engineering and AI-first operations with Telefonica Germany’s telecom infrastructure modernisation objectives to lay the foundation for a full-scale private cloud.
A Scalable Blueprint for Transformation

The partnership is expected to empower Telefonica Germany with a flexible cloud environment that supports cloud-native innovation, AI-led operations, and long-term infrastructure transformation. It will also help accelerate infrastructure sovereignty, telco cloud advancements, reduce dependency on proprietary virtualisation environments, and strengthen business-to-business (B2B) monetisation capabilities through a unified strategic partnership model.
