In an attempt to target more than 100,000 customers by March next year, Alibaba Cloud, part of Chinese technology giant Alibaba Group, is leaving no stone unturned in India. It is tapping technology start-ups, SMEs, smart city projects and even traditional industries such as steel manufacturing and agriculture.
At present, Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure are the two biggest players in India. Together, the two together hold more than a 70 per cent share in the Indian market.
Alibaba is one of the top three cloud service solution providers in the world and among the top two in the Asia-Pacific region.
