Headquartered in New York City, DigitalOcean, a cloud infrastructure provider has invested $5 million in its data center at Bangalore – the company’s eighth data center. Co-founder and Chief Marketing Officer Mitch Wainer told the Daily Cloud that the new data center will openby June. “India will explode over the next five years. It is the fastest-growing startup ecosystem in the world and will be the largest developer market by 2020 with five million developers in the region,” Wainer said. “That’s DigitalOcean’s target audience. We want to get in there to help those businesses get up and running with an infrastructure that’s easy to use and easy to grow.”
The company recently appointed Prabhakar Jayakumar as the India Country Manager, reports Economic Times.
In a previous release, Ben Uretsky, CEO and Co-Founder of DigitalOcean said, “We want to help the booming economy in India continue to grow and succeed. There’s no better way to build your business then on top of cloud. Entrepreneurs should be focused on their product and keeping their customers happy, not managing hardware and servers.”
