ArcelorMittal Expands Partnership with Microsoft and Commits to Azure and AI

A Centralized Cloud Infrastructure Strategy

ArcelorMittal anchors its digital transformation on the Azure platform as its IT backbone. The group will integrate Microsoft Fabric, Purview and Foundry, as well as other Azure infrastructure services, to consolidate its data in a single, reliable database and accelerate the deployment of analytics and artificial intelligence solutions across its global business systems and processes.

This approach addresses three key areas: accelerating digital innovation and the delivery of AI-powered solutions, strengthening cybersecurity and systems resilience, and improving operational efficiency by reducing dependence on legacy IT systems.

According to Nik Puri, the group's Chief Information Officer, the challenge goes beyond modernizing systems: it is about "fundamentally redesigning the IT operating model by integrating data and AI at the heart of infrastructure management". The stated objective is efficiency at scale, faster and more informed decision-making, and positioning ArcelorMittal at the forefront of digital transformation in the global steel industry.

Microsoft emphasized that ambitious enterprises are moving from an AI experimentation phase to rebuilding their model around it, using a reliable cloud and data foundation to redefine how a large industrial corporation operates.
