India’s Reliance Communications (RCom), has revealed it has deployed Cloud Xchange nodes in Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bangalore and Hyderabad.

The company expects to achieve full deployment of its next generation content and cloud delivery network by year-end.

According to Reliance Group chairman Anil Dhirubhai Ambani, the deployment is expected to enable government departments in India access to 240 times the amount of power currently available in government data centers, in addition to 6 times the amount of high speed storage currently available in the country.

He said that over the past year, one key endeavor of RCom and subsidiary Global Cloud Xchange has been a strategic realignment of its capabilities to support cloud networking requirements, including self-provisioning of network resources and bandwidth-on-demand.

The company aims to leverage its extensive national and global network reach to differentiate in the cloud market.

"Cloud computing has already made an impact on the everyday life of many Indians. It is driving business model innovation and helping businesses," said Manoj Menon , senior partner & managing director of analyst firm Frost & Sullivan.

"Going forward, the impact will be even more pervasive with innovative solutions around safe cities, smart homes, connected cars and better healthcare."

The Reliance Group, Reliance Communications' parent company, provides around 600,000 square feet of data center capacity spread across India, connected by India’s terrestrial fiber network and the world's largest subsea cable infrastructure.
