Amazon Web Services (AWS) has announced an investment of approximately $8.2
billion in the Indian state of Maharashtra over the coming years. This initiative aligns with India’s
efforts to boost local cloud data storage, with the cloud services market projected to grow

The investment is expected to enhance employment opportunities and will see AWS deploying
advanced technologies and cloud management services in India by 2029-2030. Amazon currently
operates data centers in Mumbai and Hyderabad, and last year, it announced a $2 billion investment
to expand its e-commerce operations in India.
