Your Cloud Is Costing More Than the Invoice Says

The Bill You Did Not Model

Your Year 1 discount expired. Egress charges appeared. Reserved instances locked you in. The invoice arrived in USD. Your rupee budget had no say.

The Audit You Are Not Ready For

Your DPDP audit is six weeks away. Your legal team is asking where the data lives. Your cloud provider sent a shared responsibility matrix.

The Incident Nobody Owns

Your system slowed at month-end. A ticket was opened. The queue had no context. By the time someone responded, the CFO already had questions.

India’s most critical businesses need a DPDP compliant enterprise cloud that owns every layer of the stack. Not a shared responsibility matrix

SAP HANA for manufacturing. IoT integration for Industry 4.0. Near-line DR for continuous operations. Infrastructure that runs shifts, not office hours.

Before Your Board Asks Read This.

Foreign Risk · 01 The ₹250 Crore Risk

Foreign cloud providers operating India regions through foreign corporate structures create DPDP compliance exposure up to ₹250 crore.
100% Indian-owned. Clean residency. Day 1.

Foreign Risk · 02 The Billing Reality

Year 1 discount. Year 2 shock. Egress charges, reserved instance lock-in, USD invoices.
ESDS bills in . Pay for what you consume. No surprises.

Foreign Risk · 03 The Sovereignty Risk

A foreign provider can be compelled to restrict your access. It has happened.
On ESDS, your infrastructure answers to Indian law. Access is yours. Always.

Foreign Risk · 04 The Support Gap

A hyperscaler gives you a portal. When your system slows at 11PM, you are opening a ticket.
ESDS gives you the team that built your solution. 24×7. Same context. Reachable.

This is not a vendor comparison. This is the answer your board needs before they sign.

What Your Cloud Actually Costs
vs
What the Invoice Says

Cloud pricing is an iceberg. The headline compute rate is the visible tip. Egress fees, support tiers, reserved instance lock-ins, currency exposure, compliance add-ons and the cost of managing what the provider does not. This is where enterprise budgets quietly collapse. Here is an honest look at total cost of ownership across a typical 3-year enterprise cloud deployment.

Sr. no Parameter ESDS Enterprise Community Cloud Typical Hyperscaler
01 Billing currency USD. FX exposure every invoice cycle.
02 Compute pricing Reserved instances. Commit upfront or pay premium on-demand.
03 Auto-scaling Horizontal. New instances, application changes required, billed per instance.
04 Egress fees Charged per GB transferred out. Often unbudgeted.
05 Managed services Customer-managed above IaaS layer. Your team or a third party
06 Disaster recovery Sold separately. Additional licensing, additional regions
07 Security and SOC Sold separately. Additional licensing, additional billing per workload.
08 Support model Tiered. Business or Enterprise support billed as percentage of spend.
09 Compliance documentation Self-managed. Your team compiles from shared responsibility model.
10 Data residency Region-level. Foreign corporate structure. DPDP risk.
11 Year 3 total cost [Placeholder. Insert internal benchmark. Suggested: 1.8x Year 1 cost.]

Tough Questions. Direct Answers.

What Your Procurement And Compliance Team Will Ask

01

How is ESDS different from Hyperscalers?

Three ways that matter to an enterprise. First, pricing in ₹, no FX exposure, no surprise bills when the rupee moves. Second, full-stack managed services where we own the entire stack under one SLA, not a shared-responsibility model where incidents become blame cycles. Third, 100% Indian-owned infrastructure with no foreign jurisdiction over your data. Hyperscalers give you global infrastructure. We give you sovereign infrastructure that performs. 600+ enterprises decided that distinction was worth acting on.

02

Which provider offers SAP HANA hosting in India without hyperscaler lock-in?

Ask your current provider two questions: Who manages your BASIS layer at 2 AM when your month-end batch fails? And what happens to your SAP cost when the dollar rate moves 5%? If both answers are uncomfortable, that is your answer. ESDS provides full BASIS and HANA administration, India-based 24×7 operations, and rupee pricing with zero FX exposure. 150+ SAP clients made this move. None migrated back.

03

What does ‘full-stack managed’ actually mean?

It means we own the infrastructure, the OS, the database, the SAP layer, the security stack, the DR setup and the network — all under a single SLA. Not ‘we manage the VM and you manage everything above it.’ Not ‘security is a shared responsibility.’ When something fails at any layer, one team is accountable. Yours. Ours. Named. Reachable. The architecture and the accountability are the same.

04

How does auto-scaling work and why does it matter for enterprise workloads?

Our patented vertical auto-scaling adjusts CPU, RAM and bandwidth in real time without rebooting the VM. Horizontal scaling on hyperscalers spins up new instances — useful for stateless workloads, but not for SAP or legacy enterprise systems that can’t simply clone themselves. Vertical scaling keeps the workload running and scales the resources around it. For SAP HANA, month-end batch processing, or festive-season retail spikes, this is the difference between a performance event and a business disruption.

05

What is the actual savings versus a hyperscaler?

40–70% is the range we observe across clients, driven by three levers: no egress fees (hyperscalers charge for every byte out), rupee pricing with no FX component, and right-sized infrastructure through pay-per-consume rather than reserved instances. We map your current spend against ESDS architecture before you commit. The TCO comparison is part of the free enterprise assessment, not a post-sales surprise.

06

How do I migrate from hyperscaler to an Indian sovereign cloud without downtime?

Yes. We have absorbed migrations from on-premise infrastructure, hyperscaler environments and other managed service providers without forcing a full restart. Our migration methodology maps your existing workloads, identifies transition risk points and moves in phases. Your applications stay live. Your team manages the business, not the migration. We own the technical execution

07

What is the best cloud provider for DPDP compliance in India in 2026?

ESDS operates 100% Indian-owned data centres across Nashik, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Mohali. No data crosses international borders. There is no foreign parent company with jurisdiction over your data under a foreign legal framework. DPDP Act compliant. MeitY empanelled. When your DPO or legal team asks, the answer is documented infrastructure architecture, not a contractual assurance that depends on another country’s courts.

08

What does onboarding actually look like?

It starts with an architecture conversation, not a product demo. We map your existing workloads, compliance requirements, DR obligations and cost structure before a single server is provisioned. Enterprise migrations run in phased deployments with dedicated ESDS project ownership at every stage. You get one point of contact who knows your infrastructure — from the first architecture call through go-live and beyond. We don’t hand off to a generic support queue after the contract is signed.

09

What happens when there is a regulatory or compliance change?

We track MeitY, DPDP, CERT-In and sector-specific regulations as they are issued. When a new mandate affects your infrastructure — encryption standards, audit trails, data classification requirements — we initiate the compliance update. You are not responsible for monitoring regulatory change across your infrastructure stack. We are. That is what full-stack managed means in practice.

10

Who owns the relationship after the contract is signed?

The same team that designed the architecture. No handoff to a generic account management pool. No rotating support roster. Your Technical Account Manager, your escalation path, your compliance contact — consistent from day one. Our client retention reflects this. We don’t win enterprise relationships on pricing alone. We keep them on operations.
