What Does the NVIDIA-Reliance Relationship Mean for India?
- Reliance's entry into India's cloud industry is set to drive competition, lower costs, and boost data localisation and is expected to grow to approximately 3,000 to 4,000 megawatts over the next three to five years.
- India used to cater to much of the backend and outsourcing of software earlier; it should be at the front end of solutions, 5 years down the line.
- Jio took India from number 158 in the world to number one in eight years. We as a single company didn't know anything about this domain, but today we are the largest data company in the world.
- Reliance plans to build a gigawatt-scale AI-ready data centre in Jamnagar. Pai mentioned how IT companies are already managing and maintaining data centres globally. He believes that with ample talent available, India can excel in this field.
- NVIDIA founder, Jensen Huang, called India 'one of the biggest intelligence markets,' and is helping Reliance grow significantly catering to a population of 1.4 billion people to bring intelligence at scale.
- With initiatives such as free data for Jio subscribers, Reliance is strengthening its position while promoting data retention within India, which is a strategic move for data security. Its capacity for large-scale data storage could push competitors like Microsoft to host data domestically.
- Not just Reliance, but a number of other Indian companies announced their collaboration with NVIDIA. Their aim is to create new jobs and train developers to equip themselves with AI.
- NASSCOM’s Vipul Parekh also believes that India houses a large talent pool that can be increased exponentially, and with more advanced courses being offered in the institutions, the proportion can only rise.
- At the company's 47th Annual General Meeting in September, Reliance unveiled several AI products, including Jio Brain, Jio AI-Cloud, and Jio Phone Call AI.
- Reliance plans to establish a development centre in India to train a large number of developers—potentially hundreds of thousands—in the use of core foundry and Omniverse tools.
