The company stated that AI represented 29% of its revenue in the first quarter of 2026, up from 25% in 2025. The growth was attributed to deployments across technology, financial services, consumer packaged goods, and manufacturing sectors.
Grid Dynamics operates as a Microsoft Azure specialized partner with five advanced specializations, including Infrastructure and Database Migration. Through Microsoft's Azure Accelerate program, Grid Dynamics clients receive free deployment support, Azure credits, partner funding, and funded migration assessments.

The platform includes GenAI-powered data migration automation that converts legacy SQL, pipeline orchestration, and data schemas from platforms including Teradata, Informatica, and Oracle to Azure-native equivalents.
"The introduction of our GAIN Platform for SDLC on Microsoft Azure is a pivotal moment for enterprises looking to shed technical debt and achieve cloud-native agility," said Rahul Bindlish, SVP Global Partnerships and Marketing at Grid Dynamics.
