Appirio, a Wipro company, was an information technology consulting company headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana (United States) that offered technology and professional services to companies wishing to adopt public cloud applications.[1] This included Software-as-a-Service and Platform-as-a-Service technologies like Salesforce.com, and Google Apps.[2] Appirio ran as a serverless company, utilizing only public cloud solutions and no in-house datacenter.[3]

On 20 October 2016, Appirio announced that they would be acquired by Wipro, an Indian information technology services corporation based in Bangalore, India, for $500 million.[4][5] On 31 March 2021, the Appirio brand was retired by Wipro and merged into its Salesforce practice.[6]
