OVHcloud expands operational ambit in India

OVHcloud
OVHcloud, a global player and the leading European cloud provider is expanding India operations through strategic investments in infrastructure and skilled workforce. It is responding to India's rapidly growing digital economy through localized solutions and investments across India's core operations and support functions to further its commitment to partners and resellers competing in the cloud solutions and web hosting market. OVHcloud has invested in the expansion of the workforce across Business and Enterprise support levels. In the last 6 months, it has expanded its Bangalore office, with experts like Customer Success Engineers, Cloud Engineer and Developers.

"India is a strategic market for OVHcloud and in line with its global strategy, it aims to become a leading cloud provider, allowing customers to retain control over their data, by using a mix of public and private clouds. It is expanding India operations through strategic investments by strengthening the local workforce and enhancing infrastructure framework for India," said General Manager, Asia Pacific, Lionel Legros. He adds, "The company is strengthening its India infrastructure to reduce latency between India and Europe (where OVHcloud has 20 Datacenters) and also between India and Singapore where OVHcloud operates a Datacenter since 2017. The decision to expand our presence in India was a logical step in our business growth strategy. The country is rich with diverse talent from well-known prestigious colleges and universities and we have the opportunity to further expand staffing and capabilities in various functions to service current and future requirements."

OVHcloud invested in India through building R&D competencies followed by the sales team with the launch of its Partner Program. It also later launched a Support and Competency centre to manage the support locally. As the next critical step, it is focusing on the deployment of its infrastructure via the first Point of Presence.

A key USP is its ability to provide competitive pricing, owing to its self-established end-to-end value chain, from building servers to delivering services, and hence providing the flexibility and faster route to market. OVHcloud has registered buoyant demand from existing customers with India operations and is committed to remaining transparent on where it hosts the customer's data.
