Latest Market Trends

Artificial Intelligence and Advanced Analytics Drive Innovation

Generative AI adoption has become a critical market catalyst, with significant portions of AI services being deployed on public cloud platforms. The Indian public cloud market is witnessing strong growth in specialized segments such as AI platforms and application development software, complementing sustained demand for established enterprise applications including Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Resource Management (ERM), and collaborative applications.

Over 50% of Indian enterprises now deploy AI solutions via the cloud, with public cloud platforms hosting the majority of these deployments, according to industry reports. Leading cloud providers are integrating AI into their service offerings to enhance intelligence, operational efficiency, and customer experiences. This trend is accelerating digital transformation across finance, healthcare, education, and governance sectors, where data-driven decision-making has become essential for maintaining competitive advantage.

Government Initiatives and Data Localization Driving Infrastructure Investment

Government-led programs are playing a pivotal role in shaping the public cloud landscape. The Digital India initiative, coupled with the Startup India and Make in India programs, continues to boost cloud adoption across enterprises and public sector organizations. These policies promote data localization and implement cloud-first strategies for government projects, creating substantial demand for domestic and compliant cloud infrastructure.

Recent government actions underscore the strategic importance of cloud computing. In January 2025, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) announced plans to pilot a cloud platform for financial companies using Indian IT vendors as an effort to increase data localization and challenge global cloud supremacy in India's financial sector. This initiative will involve collaboration with local IT firms and marks a significant commitment to building indigenous cloud capabilities. Additionally, in 2024, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare migrated its Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) data to comply with healthcare data localization norms, signaling the government's commitment to data sovereignty while advancing digital public services.
