en.Wedoany.com Reported - On June 25, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy met with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi and announced plans to continue expanding investment in the Indian market from 2026 to 2030. Amazon US will add $13 billion to expand AI and cloud infrastructure in India, bringing the company's total planned investment in AI and cloud infrastructure in India from 2026 to 2030 to over $21 billion.
This investment will primarily be used to expand the data center capacity of Amazon Web Services (AWS) in two cloud regions: Mumbai and Hyderabad, India. As Indian enterprises, startups, and government agencies accelerate the deployment of generative AI, cloud-native applications, and large-scale data services, local cloud regions need to handle higher-intensity model training, inference calls, data storage, and business system migration demands. Amazon US's additional investment in AI and cloud infrastructure means the Indian market will gain greater local supply in computing power, networking, storage, and AI platform services.
Amazon US stated that Indian customers will be able to use services including Trainium high-performance AI chips, the Amazon Bedrock inference engine, secure cloud technologies, and developer tools. Trainium is Amazon's self-developed chip designed for AI model training and inference scenarios, primarily aimed at reducing the computational cost of large-scale AI workloads. Amazon Bedrock provides enterprises with capabilities for foundation model invocation, inference deployment, and generative AI application development, helping customers build AI applications without directly managing the underlying model infrastructure.
This investment is not a single data center project but a long-term commitment covering AI infrastructure, cloud service capabilities, and India's digital economy ecosystem. AWS's cloud regions in Mumbai and Hyderabad will continue to serve local startups, large enterprises, financial institutions, internet platforms, and government agencies. For customers requiring data localization, low-latency access, and stable cloud services, expanding local cloud regions can reduce cross-border data transmission pressure and improve the availability of critical business systems.
Amazon US also stated that from 2026 to 2030, the company will invest a cumulative total of $48 billion in India to support its various business operations. From 2010 to 2030, the company's cumulative investment commitment in India will exceed $88 billion. In addition to AI and cloud infrastructure, Amazon US plans to continue investing in e-commerce, logistics, rapid delivery, digital exports, small business digitization, and employment support.
India has become a key market in the global competition for AI and cloud infrastructure. Its local enterprises are digitizing rapidly, with a large pool of developers and engineers, and the government is promoting AI capabilities in public services, education, finance, healthcare, and industrial applications. Amazon US's expansion of AI and cloud infrastructure in India not only meets local customer demand but also secures regional computing nodes in the global cloud computing and AI service competition.
Once the new investment is implemented, the data center clusters in Mumbai and Hyderabad will continue to handle more AI workloads. For customers, the core change is not just an increase in available server numbers, but access to computing services with lower latency, higher security, and better suitability for AI applications. For Amazon US, expanding AI and cloud infrastructure in India will further strengthen AWS's service coverage in South Asia and provide greater application scenarios for its AI products like Trainium and Amazon Bedrock.
Going forward, attention should be paid to the specific expansion pace of Amazon's two cloud regions in India, including data center construction scale, AI chip deployment progress, power and network support, enterprise customer migration speed, and the usage of government and public sector projects. If the 2026-2030 investment plan proceeds as scheduled, Amazon US will establish a deeper presence in India's AI and cloud infrastructure market, also positioning India as a key node in the global expansion of AI applications and cloud services.
