YADRO and SberServis to deploy Russian infrastructure for banks and corporations

YADRO and SberServis have signed a partnership memorandum to develop infrastructure solutions for Russian banks and large corporations. The document was signed at the "Digital Solutions" forum on October 8, 2026. The goal of the partnership is to create competitive solutions based on Russian IT hardware that will let organizations move to import-independent infrastructure.

YADRO is a technology company within the IKS Holding group that designs and manufactures IT hardware. SberServis specializes in comprehensive maintenance, monitoring, and support for critical IT infrastructure. Together, they combine the expertise of a hardware manufacturer with that of an experienced infrastructure operator, factoring in operational requirements as early as the architecture design stage.

Technology components of the solution

The companies plan to develop configurations based on three core YADRO components: • YADRO servers • YADRO data storage systems • YADRO network equipment

The solution will be rounded out with software and services: system software, database management systems (DBMS), infrastructure monitoring tools, and backup tools. Before deployment, the companies plan to verify the compatibility of all components with the customer's existing infrastructure and carry out testing, piloting, and phased rollout stages.

Division of responsibilities and approach

YADRO will provide its expertise in IT hardware development and manufacturing, as well as determining the optimal architecture for specific tasks. SberServis will be responsible for operating, monitoring, maintaining, and providing technical support for the deployed infrastructure. Alexey Evtushenko, CEO of SberServis, stressed the importance of factoring in operational requirements during the design process: "When designing an infrastructure solution, it's important to account for its future operational requirements as early as the architecture formation stage. This approach allows us to combine hardware and software components with a service model while accounting for the specifics of customers for whom IT infrastructure availability and resilience are critical."

Alexander Bakulin, Commercial Director of YADRO, noted: "The banking industry is one of the most demanding when it comes to IT infrastructure reliability, availability, and manageability. SberServis's industry expertise and deep understanding of the specifics of banking and large corporate IT systems, combined with YADRO's technological competencies, will allow us to build infrastructure solutions for complex, business-critical tasks. This approach will make the transition to Russian IT infrastructure more predictable and give customers a clear model for its deployment and support."

Service model and long-term support

A separate focus area for the partners will be developing a service model that includes infrastructure support throughout its entire lifecycle, post-warranty maintenance, and a single support window for customers. This will let clients receive all services from one coordinated team instead of dealing with multiple vendors.

Implementation plans

To put the agreements into practice, the companies plan to: • Set up a working group of YADRO and SberServis specialists • Put together a market offering with specific configurations • Prepare demo, pilot, and commercial materials • Take part in relevant industry events • Hold negotiations with potential customers and partners

The partnership targets Russian banks and large corporations that need reliable, manageable, import-independent infrastructure with full lifecycle control. The first results of the collaboration are expected in the coming months.
