Tata Elxsi and Druid Software Partner to Expand Enterprise 5G Ecosystem
Mumbai: Tata Elxsi, a global leader in design and technology services, has announced a strategic partnership with Druid Software, a pioneer in cellular network technology. The collaboration aims to accelerate enterprise adoption of secure, scalable private networks through Tata Elxsi’s xG-Force Lab-as-a-Service (LaaS) platform.
At the core of the partnership is Druid’s Raemis™ private cellular solution, built on open 3GPP standards. Raemis integrates both 4G and 5G core network functionality, offering enterprises a seamless migration path from 4G to 5G. Its fully integrated IMS architecture supports mission-critical services such as VoLTE, VoNR, and advanced multimedia applications.
Through xG-Force Lab, enterprises and communication service providers (CSPs) can validate, test, and deploy integrated 4G/5G solutions at scale, reducing time-to-market while ensuring performance, reliability, and security. The platform addresses critical use cases across industries including manufacturing, logistics, utilities, healthcare, transportation, and smart campuses.
Tata Elxsi will further integrate 5G applications with its innovative platforms—Neuron for autonomous networks, TETHER for connected vehicles, TEngage for digital health, and TEDAx for big data engineering—delivering solutions in AI, next-generation communications, and advanced technologies.
Druid’s Raemis™ platform, proven in field deployments, can operate as a standalone 4G/5G core network at critical sites requiring secure, high-quality private wireless coverage. With its IMS layer, Raemis enables advanced voice services and integrates with MCC platforms supporting push-to-talk, broadcast messaging, and other features. It also offers ease of installation, centralized control, and flexible deployment options.
The joint solution empowers enterprises to unlock Industry 4.0 applications such as automotive, healthcare, IoT, AR/VR, digital twins, and mission-critical communications with guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS).
“With Lab-as-a-Service, Tata Elxsi is enabling enterprises to de-risk and accelerate their 5G journey by testing, validating, and deploying future-ready networks. Our collaboration with Druid Software ensures enterprises get the best of 5G core and IMS in an integrated, standards-compliant environment,” said Priya S. Kumar, Head of Media & Communications, Tata Elxsi.
“By combining our mature multigenerational 4G/5G core platform with a built-in IMS layer and Tata Elxsi’s Lab-as-a-Service, enterprises gain the confidence to deploy next-generation connectivity tailored for their most demanding use cases,” added Sumit Gehani, VP of Sales, Druid Software.
