Challenges in Cloud Computing Adoption in India- Data Security and Regulatory Concerns

Abstract

Cloud computing is making a big difference in how IT is done in India. Companies are now able to keep, manage, and process their data on the internet, instead of using physical servers that require space and regular maintenance. This shift brings several benefits: it helps businesses cut down on costs, improves the way they work, and allows them to quickly adapt to changes in demand. With cloud computing, companies can focus more on their core work and leave data storage and management to the cloud. More Indian companies in different areas—like banking, healthcare, e-commerce, and manufacturing—are now turning to cloud technology to grow faster and try new methods of working.

Cloud technology is a strong support for India’s goal of becoming a digital-first economy. Through cloud computing, Indian companies can access advanced tools like artificial intelligence (AI), big data, and machine learning, which help them work smarter and offer customized services to customers. For smaller businesses, which are a big part of India’s economy, cloud provides a budget-friendly way to use top-level technology and compete with larger companies. Cloud computing also lets companies scale up or down according to their needs, which is important in India’s fast-changing markets.
