The simplest explanation is that a \u201ccloud region\u201d describes the actual, real-life geographic location where your public cloud resources are located.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, it\u2019s a common misconception that the \u201ccloud\u201d is just an intangible storage space. As we said, the cloud is just a name for actual devices that process data. They\u2019re data centers, and they live in places.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Newest Cloud Region<\/strong><br \/>\nDelhi-NCR will now be the 10th cloud region in Asia-Pacific and 25th globally. It will allow Google Cloud customers, operating in India, to benefit from lower latency and higher performance of their cloud-based workloads and data.<\/p>\n<p>Talking about the new opening, Kurian said their second cloud region will allow customers in<br \/>\nIndia to also run additional systems in the cloud to handle solutions like disaster recovery and data location. He added, &#8220;It gives us the ability to provide more capacity for growth over many years and is a large commitment from us in terms of capital, in terms of infra and growth, and is designed to allow us to capture the opportunity we see around growth coming from existing and new customers.&#8221; With organizations all across India, he said Google Cloud will be able to provide services to a broad set of customers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.turningcloud.com\/blog\/tata-communications-and-google\/\"><strong>Tata Communications, Google Cloud India&#8217;s Partner<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Google Cloud is here with its second cloud region in India to support businesses and help them become smarter with data.
