Expanding capacity for AI workloads
The latest investment will be directed towards expanding AWS infrastructure in Mumbai and Hyderabad, where Amazon is bidding to increase data centre capacity to support growing demand for cloud computing and AI services.
Customers will gain access to custom AI chips, managed AI services, secure cloud technologies and developer tools designed to help organisations deploy AI applications at greater scale.
The announcement followed a meeting between Amazon CEO Andy Jassy and Indian Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi in New Delhi on 25 June, where the pair discussed the company’s continued expansion in the country.
Andy said: “For over a decade, we have been serving customers, sellers, developers, startups and enterprises through our different businesses. The response has been tremendous, with strong growth especially across our ecommerce, AI and cloud businesses.
