/ -- Linode, the world's largest independent open cloud provider, opened its newest data center today in Mumbai, India. The data center expands the company's global footprint to one of the fastest growing developer and technology regions in the world. The new data center is Linode's tenth worldwide.
In launching its Mumbai data center, Linode offers the region's five million developers and the organizations they support a more affordable and local alternative to hyperscale providers currently serving the Indian market. "We built Linode to democratize cloud computing, to make it more accessible to more people and to do so at price points that make it more affordable than what's currently available to them," said Christopher Aker, founder and CEO of Linode. "Our entry into the Indian market opens the door for a wave of new innovation previously closed off to a significant number of developers and businesses in India."
