India's data centre ecosystem: 4-pillar view of 16 key players

4-pillar view of India’s data-centre ecosystem. Here’s the structured breakdown of the 16 players shaping the rollout, grouped by role: ⸻ 1. Operators (Run the Data Centres) • E2E Networks – Cloud and AI workload–focused operator. • Netweb – Server & HPC infra player moving into data centres. • Techno Electric – Engineering + infra management of DC sites. • Anant Raj – Real estate developer pivoting into data-centre ops. • L&T (Larsen & Toubro) – EPC giant with turnkey DC build + operate. ⸻ 2. Suppliers (Provide Equipment & Systems) • TD Power Systems – Critical power generation for DC uptime. • Siemens – Automation & energy efficiency systems. • Schneider Electric – Cooling, power, and DC infrastructure backbone. ⸻ 3. Integrators (Connect Networks + Services) • Sify Technologies – Full-stack DC + cloud + network integrator. • Tata Communications – Global connectivity & enterprise hybrid cloud. • Airtel (Nxtra) – Telecom-tied DC services. • Indus Towers – Edge infrastructure + towers for low-latency needs. • Aurionpro – IT infra + cybersecure DC solutions. ⸻ 4. Developers (Build Large Campuses) • Reliance Industries (Jio) – DC campuses aligned with 5G + JioCloud. • AdaniConnex – Hyperscale campuses with EdgeConnex partnership. ⸻ ⚡ Why this matters: This lineup shows India’s DC boom is not just about hyperscale operators (like AWS/Azure/Google), but also about local enablers — from power suppliers (TD, Schneider, Siemens) to real-estate developers (Anant Raj, L&T) and telecom integrators (Airtel, Tata Comm, Sify). They form a stacked ecosystem, almost like: • Developers = city planners • Operators = factory owners • Suppliers = machinery providers • Integrators = logistics & utilities
