NetSuite is opening data centres in the Oracle Cloud Mumbai and Hyderabad regions. The data centres are being designed with high security and availability to meet the demand of its growing customer base in India and expand its footprint of data centres around the world. This will be the first time NetSuite will run on data centres in India.

All new NetSuite customers in India will be provisioned in these new regions, and existing customers in India will be migrated in the coming months. These data centres will be able to help India-based customers to reduce cross-border data transfers and benefit from NetSuite’s embedded artificial intelligence (AI) features. In addition, two separate data centres can provide disaster recovery services while helping the customers to meet their geographical data storage requirements.

With the addition of these regions, NetSuite is now running in 16 Oracle Cloud Infrastructure regions in North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific.

Commenting on the announcement, Vishal Vijayraj, chief executive officer (CEO), Prateek Technosoft, said, “Oracle NetSuite’s expansion in India is a game-changer for businesses seeking agility and compliance. With local data centres, we can now offer enhanced cloud enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions that align with regional regulatory needs and deliver unmatched performance.”

Meanwhile, Sumit Pachnanda, founder and chief technology officer (CTO), SaaSWorx, said, “The NetSuite data centre launch in India gives added data residency confidence to customers, especially the ones who have plans to list on public markets. SaaSWorx has been making sure that its customers and prospects are aware of NetSuite’s commitment to the Indian market and the data centre launch reenforces this commitment.”

in addition, Swaminathan Rajagopalan, CEO, Ambient Business Solutions Private Limited, “The importance of legal and regulatory compliance cannot be understated. NetSuite has made the right decision to offer its data centres in India, much to the delight of its existing customers and partners, and new prospects.”
