Understanding India's Cloud Infrastructure Landscape
India is a rapidly growing economy with a tremendous amount of potential for cloud infrastructure growth. According to a report by Nasscom, the country's IT industry association, India's cloud market is expected to reach $7.1 billion by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 30% from 2018 to 2022. And with the government's push towards digital transformation and the increasing adoption of cloud technologies among Indian businesses, it's no surprise that AWS is investing heavily in the country.
What AWS's Investment Means for India
With its massive investment in India's cloud infrastructure, AWS is not only showing its commitment to the country, but it also means that Indian businesses will have access to world-class cloud infrastructure and services. This move is expected to create more than 1 million new jobs in India by 2025, as more businesses adopt cloud technologies and demand for skilled professionals increases. Additionally, it will help bolster India's startup ecosystem, as cloud infrastructure provides startups with the foundation they need to grow and scale their businesses.
