In turn, companies will have the opportunity to “rapidly implement advanced technologies and reduce infrastructure and software costs,” Yandex added. Yandex B2B Tech will include the services “Mail”, “Disk”, “Teleconferencing”, “Documents”, “Tracker”, “Messenger”, “Browser”, YandexGPT and YandexART neural networks and many other tools.
Corporate clients will be able to access Yandex B2B Tech using different models: in the cloud (XaaS or via API) or on their own servers (on-premise). This latter format is in demand among companies that prefer to store and process all data within their internal infrastructure, Yandex clarified.
According to the IT giant, the size of the market in which the new business group will operate will exceed 510 billion rubles in 2028, more than double that of 2024: up to 240 billion rubles. The average annual growth rate of the market will be around 21%, the company said.
After the start of the military operation in Ukraine, many foreign software providers left the Russian market, so domestic organizations began to look for substitutes. In August 2024, the Ministry of Digital Development reported its plans to submit a draft law on companies’ fees for the use of foreign software to the State Duma in September. The measure was supposed to “equalize” the conditions for the implementation of Russian software with foreign ones.
