Anant Raj Cloud, the wholly owned subsidiary of Indian real estate & infrastructure giant Anant Raj Limited, has teamed up with Orange Business to expand its offering in the country’s burgeoning cloud and data center market. This expansion is driven by the surge in digital adoption across various industries in the country.
Anant Raj Cloud launched their sovereign-cloud platform named ‘Ashok Cloud’ with an objective to provide tailored, secure, and robust cloud services alongside its data center business to enterprises and public sector undertakings in India. The company sought support in dimensioning resources, designing the right technical framework, and creating an overall governance model for its operations that addresses local data privacy and security regulations, promulgating a sovereign Cloud offering.
With a rich expertise in digital integration, Orange Business was chosen as the trusted technology partner to support Anant Raj Cloud’s digital transformational journey. Orange Business has designed, built, and is now operating multiple services for Anant Raj Cloud’s platform, including setting up a datacenter and cloud infrastructure to efficiently serve multiple customers while ensuring stringent data security and resource isolation. The deployment phase is completed, and ARC (Anant Raj Cloud) has already started onboarding its customers.
With a robust foundation of access controls, encryption mechanisms, and continuous monitoring, the Public Cloud Service provides a secure and scalable platform tailored to meet the diverse needs of its customers.
In the future, Anant Raj Cloud plans to introduce additional services to support the growth of its customers businesses more effectively. These new offerings will be designed to enhance operational efficiency and drive innovation, ultimately helping its customers to stay competitive in a rapidly changing market.
By storing data locally in data centers, Anant Raj Cloud will help its customers comply with data residency laws and other local sovereign requirements.
Anant Raj Limited plans to further invest on its cloud capacity including a 307MW data center footprint across India, which will be at its existing facilities located in towns of Manesar, Rai, and Panchkula.
