So far only companies like Amazon, Google and Microsoft has built local data centers,  despite this, none of the companies have the large cloud computing . Microsoft serves its cloud services to 13 data centers while Amazon serves eight and Google serves 12. When compared to other countries in Asia all these three companies have data centers in Singapore, but none have in Mainland China or India.

Unpredictable power supply, patchy internet connectivity, limited bandwidth and unreliable optical fibre connectivity between different parts of the country have so far prevented these companies from setting up data centre in the country. However, with cloud adoption rapidly increasing, this is set to change.

"Over the last couple of years, the groundwork has been done in terms of Indian customers understanding nuances in public cloud. We are hearing about Amazon considering setting up a data centre in India but nothing has happened yet," said Naveen Mishra, research director at Gartner.

According to Gartner changes in political and economic scenario have triggered positive sentiment for making such investments in India. "With high optimism, everyone is of opinion that enterprises will invest more into expansion and they will have to leverage IT for growth," Mishra said.
