Amazon Web Services (AWS) has committed to investing Rs 600 billion to expand its data centre infrastructure in the Hyderabad region.

This investment will significantly bolster AWS’s presence in Telangana, with plans to establish additional data centres in Hyderabad. This expansion will cement Hyderabad’s position as the undisputed hub of data centres in India.

To facilitate this new phase of expansion, AWS has requested the allocation of additional land, a proposal that the state government has promptly agreed to support. AWS’s decision to expand in Telangana underscores its commitment to supporting the state’s digital ambitions. The Hyderabad AWS Region will play a pivotal role in driving the growth of cloud services, artificial intelligence, and advanced computing capabilities in India.

This agreement was secured during a high-level meeting at the World Economic Forum, Davos. The discussion also highlighted the state government’s proactive and supportive policies, which have created an ideal ecosystem for data centre development.
