IIT BHU Akash Ganga

About the

initiative

Akash Ganga is an initiative that invites proposals focused on Next-Generation Cloud Applications, aiming to drive innovation, scalability, and efficiency in cloud computing environments.

It seeks groundbreaking ideas that harness emerging technologies such as AI/ML, Biomedical Engineering, Integration of IoT devices and wearable tech in cloud environments, Cloud-Driven Data Analytics for Enhancing EV Battery Performance and Longevity, Farm management systems with mobile/cloud-based interfaces, and cloud-native development to shape the future of cloud-based systems.

Vision

The Akash Ganga initiative aims to establish IIT BHU as a leading center of excellence in cloud research and innovation by leveraging AWS services. The initiative is inspired by the vastness and connectivity symbolized by the sky ("Akash" meaning sky or cloud) and the flowing nature of the Ganges River ("Ganga").

This name embodies the vision of creating an expansive, interconnected, and dynamic cloud-based research ecosystem that facilitates the seamless flow of knowledge, data, and innovation across disciplines. Leveraging AWS cloud services, the initiative aims to harness the limitless potential of the cloud to accelerate research.
