AWS Commits ₹60,000 Crore for Data Centres in Telangana
Amazon Web Services (AWS) has committed to investing ₹60,000 crore to establish new data centres in Telangana. The announcement was made following discussions at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, which was attended by Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, Telangana IT and industries minister Sridhar Babu and AWS representatives, including Michael Punke, vice president of global public policy at AWS. The investment aligns with AWS’s broader expansion plans in India, which include developing Hyderabad’s data centre ecosystem. AWS has already invested $1 billion in three operational centres in Telangana and plans to invest an additional $4.4 billion by 2030. Emphasising the importance of the deal, Reddy said, “Global businesses like Amazon have placed their confidence in us, marking a significant step in our Telangana Rising vision.” The Telangana government is facilitating the expansion by providing additional land for AWS’s new projects. “With this deal, Hyderabad is set to become the data centre hub of India and a global leader in cloud services, including AI,” Babu said. AWS’s investments are expected to strengthen Telangana’s position as a critical player in India’s digital and cloud infrastructure growth. AWS has also announced a $8.3 billion investment in cloud infrastructure in Maharashtra as part of its expansion into the AWS Asia Pacific (Mumbai) Region. Meanwhile, Microsoft recently announced a $3 billion commitment to expand Azure’s infrastructure in the country at the Microsoft AI Tour in Bengaluru. The investment will scale Microsoft’s regional cloud infrastructure to bolster AI and computing capabilities. Moreover, Microsoft will train 10 million people in AI by 2030 as a part of its ADVANTA(I)GE INDIA initiative.
