His work reflects a rare blend of technical leadership, hands-on engineering, and cross-functional collaboration making him a key enabler in driving business outcomes through technology.
From Systems Engineer to Cloud Visionary
Sridhar's career began with a strong foundation in systems and network engineering. Early roles at Microland and ING Vysya Life Insurance exposed him to the challenges of enterprise IT infrastructure routing, switching, WAN optimization, and VPN configuration across geographically dispersed branches. His ability to lead deployments and manage connectivity in complex ecosystems highlighted not only his technical acumen but also his emerging strength in strategic planning.
By the time he transitioned to SemanticSpace Technologies, Sridhar was already operating at a leadership level. As a Systems Manager, he directed infrastructure operations across multiple locations, implemented capacity planning protocols, managed disaster recovery, and introduced change control mechanisms that enhanced performance and compliance. He successfully led a 20-member team responsible for system administration, help desk support, and global customer operations laying the groundwork for his architectural evolution.
Leading Enterprise Modernization with Strategic Infrastructure Design
Sridhar's breakthrough came with his move into architectural leadership at industry giants like VMware and Dell Technologies. At VMware, he served as a Senior Solution Architect in the Cloud Infrastructure Business Group, where he helped Fortune 100 clients modernize their legacy data centers by implementing VCF (VMware Cloud Foundation) and transitioning to multi-cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, and GCP.
Prior to that, during his time at Dell EMC (VMware BU), Sridhar focused on HCI (Hyper-Converged Infrastructure) with VxRail and VCF. As an Advisory Solution Architect, he led multiple customer engagements, ranging from presales to deployment. His deep understanding of VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure), disaster recovery, vSphere, and Horizon made him a go-to expert for scalable solution design.
Research Contributions and Thought Leadership in Cloud Computing
Sridhar Nuti has contributed valuable research to the evolving field of cloud computing and digital architecture through two recent peer-reviewed publications. In the International Journal of Cloud Computing (QITP–IJCC) , his paper titled "Presales Engineering in Cloud Solutions: Influence, Innovation, and Impact" (July 2025) explores the strategic role of presales teams in shaping successful cloud transformations. The study highlights how AI-driven tooling and structured proposal frameworks can significantly reduce cost variance, accelerate go-lives, and enhance customer satisfaction.
Complementing this, his work published in the Journal of Recent Trends in Computer Science and Engineering (JRTCSE), "Optimizing Cloud Service Delivery with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and Platform Engineering", presents an architectural model for secure, scalable, and intelligent cloud-native systems. This research focuses on tenant isolation, workload optimization, and ML integration, offering practical guidance for enterprise-grade AI deployments. Together, these publications reflect Sridhar's deep technical acumen and commitment to advancing cloud-native innovation and personalization at scale.
A Culture of Excellence and Continuous Learning
Sridhar's academic foundation in Electronics and Communication Engineering is complemented by his certifications in VCP-DCV, VCP-CMA, VCAP, AWS Solutions Architect Associate, and Kubernetes Administration (CKA). His technical arsenal includes VMware vSphere, NSX, Tanzu, Kubernetes, vSAN, vRA, vROps, Azure, AWS, and DevOps tools like Jenkins, Git, and Docker.
Beyond his technical expertise, Sridhar is known for his mentorship and team leadership. He fosters a collaborative culture where knowledge-sharing, upskilling, and hands-on experimentation are key values. Whether it's leading a cloud migration workshop or mentoring junior engineers on automation pipelines, he brings clarity, empathy, and strategic vision to every engagement.

Amazon Web Services to provide US government agencies with up to $1 billion in savings
Amazon Web Services has agreed to provide U.S. government agencies with up to $1 billion in savings for cloud adoption, modernization and training through the end of 2028, the U.S. General Services Administration said on Thursday. The agency said the agreement with the unit of "will accelerate large-scale IT transformation across government and spur AI innovation." A government report in March said the federal government annually spends more than $100 billion to manage IT systems, acquire new systems, or update old ones. Amazon has won billions of dollars in contracts to help federal agencies transition to the cloud and for other services. The U.S. government has struggled for years to modernize its aging IT systems. The agreement offers up to a total of $1 billion in direct incentive credits in total across Federal civilian agencies including savings on core AWS cloud services, modernization and training credits. 'This landmark agreement marks a significant milestone in the large-scale digital transformation of government services,' said AWS CEO Matt Garman. Federal agencies will have access to AWS training resources and experts to help them move to the cloud. AWS supports more than 11,000 government agencies worldwide. The deal between GSA and AWS aims "to reduce the cost of federal IT expenditures, save taxpayer dollars, drive innovation and agility in new government services, and secure America's continued leadership in AI," the government said. In 2022, the Pentagon awarded $9 billion worth of cloud computing contracts to AWS, Microsoft Corp, Alphabet Inc's Google and Oracle Corp. The Joint Warfighting Cloud Capability was the multi-cloud successor to the Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure (JEDI), an IT modernization project to build a large, common commercial cloud for the Defense Department.

United Hampshire US Reit acquires freehold Pennsylvania shopping centre for US$16.4 million
[SINGAPORE] United Hampshire US Reit has acquired a freehold grocery-anchored shopping centre in Pennsylvania for a purchase consideration of S$16.4 million, the manager said on Saturday (Aug 2).
