AWS to invest $12.7 billion in Indian Cloud Infrastructure, plans to create over 130,000 jobs

Amazon Web Services (AWS), Amazon’s cloud computing division, has announced plans to invest USD 12.7 billion in cloud infrastructure in India by 2030.

The goal is to meet the country’s growing demand for cloud services. According to AWS, this investment in data center infrastructure will support an estimated 131,700 full-time equivalent jobs in Indian businesses each year.

The new investment will go toward construction, server computers, and telecommunications infrastructure, according to the statement.

Amazon said it has trained more than 4 million people in India with cloud skills since 2017 and has invested in six utility-scale renewable energy projects to fuel its web services business.

According to AWS, its presence in India benefits various aspects of the local economy, such as workforce development, training and skill-building opportunities, community engagement, and sustainability initiatives.

In India, the company currently operates two data center infrastructure regions: the AWS Asia Pacific (Mumbai) Region, which was launched in 2016, and the AWS Asia Pacific (Hyderabad) Region, which was launched in November 2022.
