Island Computing has announced the general availability of its fully managed sovereign Cloud platform from 15th August 2026, India’s Independence Day. The date reflects the company’s broader mission of national sovereignty in digital infrastructure. While a significant share of India’s Cloud economy remains dependent on infrastructure operated by foreign providers and subject to external jurisdictions, Island Computing has its data centers, hardware, operating entity and Cloud operations are built to remain within India and aligned with Indian law. The platform gives enterprises, government bodies and builders a path to run critical workloads with greater jurisdictional control, auditability and confidence in India’s digital future.

• India’s first fully managed sovereign cloud engineered ground-up in India for the modern workloads.
• Islands provision in 90 seconds. Production-grade, highly scalable, fault-resistant applications deploy in 3 minutes. Secure by default.
• 30% lower cost on the published benchmark workload compared to equivalent AWS Mumbai region configurations.

“Sovereignty isn’t a constraint, it’s a competitive advantage, it means our banks, our government and our builders can move fast without ever giving up control of the stack their future runs on,” said Vishal Sirohi, Founder and CEO, Island Computing. “On 15th August 2026, Island Computing opens the platform to startups, AI/SaaS companies, banks, government bodies and Indian builders. This Independence Day, we are giving India its long awaited digital independence.”

Advisor to Island Computing, Lomash Kumar, CTO, Frontier Instruments said, “As an advisor, what excites me most about Island Computing is that sovereignty is built into the architecture from the ground up, rather than added as an afterthought. For sectors such as BFSI, healthcare, and government, that distinction is fundamental to earning trust for the most sensitive workloads. Equally compelling is the platform itself: robust infrastructure combined with high-level abstractions designed for how developers will build in the AI era. Island Computing represents the kind of secure, sovereign, and developer-first technology infrastructure India should be building for itself.”
