Amazon Web Services (APAC Region – Hyderabad) has announced its plans of increased investment in Telangana.
AWS has announced that it will increase its investment in Telangana from Rs.20,096 crores (2.7 billion dollars) in 2020 to Rs.36,300 crores (4.4 billion dollars) by 2030.
On Friday, this announcement was made on the sidelines of the AWS Empower India event at the Hyderabad International Convention Centre. The event focuses on cloud adoption to commemorate the Hyderabad Zone going live on the AWS network.
The investment in the three data center campuses that AWS has set up in Hyderabad at Chandanvelly, FAB City, and Pharma City will be made in stages.
The three data centres are essential to AWS’s goal of strengthening its cloud infrastructure to better serve its customers in India and around the world, while also providing them with more cloud regions to choose from. The first phase of all three data centres has been completed, and users can now access cloud services from them.

Welcoming the AWS investment, IT Minister KT Rama Rao said, “I am glad to see Amazon expanding on its investment in their Hyderabad Data Centers making it one of the largest FDIs coming into the state. We have also collaborated with AWS to improve e-governance, healthcare, and municipal operations to benefit the citizens of Telangana. We are pleased that the new AWS Region in Hyderabad will spur more innovation and growth for many enterprises, startups, and public sector organizations in India.”
Apart from the Data Center investments, Hyderabad has been Amazon’s preferred destination in India. Hyderabad is home to both AWS’s largest campus in the world and Amazon’s first and largest fulfillment centre. The Telangana government is also actively collaborating with AWS’s cloud practise and has hosted some of its projects on AWS to capitalise on the benefits of cloud computing.
