As part of their commitment to making Office 365 the most trusted cloud service for productivity and delivering security, compliance and control to Office 365 customers around the globe, Microsoft has now announced that Office 365 services will now be delivered in India from the local data centers in Mumbai, Pune and Chennai.
With the launch of Office 365 datacenters in India, Microsoft is strengthening our support to the government’s Digital India vision. Following the launch of Microsoft Azure in India data centers, our investment in Office 365 in the local data centers reaffirms their commitment to the Indian market and is intended to accelerate the Indian government’s digital transformation initiative.
Today businesses of all sizes in India are already using Office 365 to make their employees more productive, accelerate decision-making with real-time collaboration and secure their business-critical data. With the launch of their three new datacenters in India, Office 365 becomes the first global commercial cloud service to provide productivity and collaboration services from within India. Businesses in India will benefit from all the innovation, security and compliance capabilities that customers around the world have come to expect from Office 365. With the new data centers they will also get the added benefit of data residency, which is particularly important to organizations in regulated industries, such as banking, government and healthcare.
Office 365 takes a comprehensive approach to compliance, achieving industry standards such as ISO 27001, ISO 27018, SOC 1 and SOC 2 reports, which provides the gold standard in security to government agencies, education and other commercial enterprises.
