Amazon ups India bet with fresh $13B AI infrastructure investment

Amazon announced a $13 billion investment to expand AWS data center capacity in India through 2030, bringing its total India investment commitments to $48 billion. The announcement followed a meeting between CEO Andy Jassy and Prime Minister Modi. This is Amazon's third major India commitment in three years. The move is part of a broader wave of global tech investment in India's AI infrastructure, with Microsoft pledging $17.5 billion and Google $15 billion. Amazon is also expanding its retail and quick-commerce operations in India, planning 20+ fulfillment centers and extending its Amazon Now service to 300+ cities.

Why Your Organization Needs ISPM

Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) continuously assesses and hardens Microsoft 365 identity environments by evaluating configurations, permissions, and policies against a security baseline. Unlike one-time audits or visibility-only tools, ISPM addresses 'drift' — the gradual degradation of security posture as users, roles, and Microsoft defaults change over time. Huntress data shows over 60% of evaluated tenants were missing more than half of recommended controls, and 55% allowed standard users to perform admin-level functions. Key risks include weak MFA, overprivileged accounts, and stale permissions that enable account takeover and BEC attacks. Microsoft data shows attackers can move laterally within 48 minutes of initial intrusion, making daily scan cycles insufficient. Huntress Managed ISPM addresses this by deploying and enforcing controls continuously, detecting drift within minutes of a change, and offering a Learning Mode to preview user impact before policy rollout.

Brussels moves to put AWS and Azure under its toughest tech rules

The European Commission has issued preliminary findings that AWS and Azure should be designated as gatekeepers under the Digital Markets Act, despite neither service meeting the regulation's standard quantitative thresholds. Brussels is invoking the DMA's qualitative route, arguing both platforms serve as critical gateways for EU businesses. If designated, the two cloud giants would face obligations including no self-preferencing, mandated interoperability, and data portability rules aimed at reducing vendor lock-in. The move is partly motivated by cloud infrastructure's growing role as the foundation for AI adoption across Europe. Both Amazon and Microsoft have objected, and a defence phase is now underway before any final decision.

Oracle’s workforce shrank by about 13% as it bankrolls its AI buildout

Oracle ended fiscal year 2026 with roughly 141,000 employees, down from 162,000 — a reduction of about 21,000 people or 13%, one of the deepest cuts in the company's history. The layoffs were framed as a reallocation of resources from legacy operations into AI and cloud infrastructure. Oracle's capital expenditure for the year reached approximately $50bn, with a contracted revenue backlog surpassing half a trillion dollars driven by large AI deals. Analysts estimate the workforce reductions free up $8–10bn annually in cash flow, which is being funneled into data-center construction. The cuts hit some teams by 30% or more, and a $16.3bn data-center financing deal required bond manager PIMCO to anchor $10bn after US banks stepped back. Oracle joins a broader tech industry trend of converting payroll into AI capital expenditure.

Amazon to invest an extra $13bn in Indian cloud and AI by 2030

Amazon announced an additional $13bn investment in India by 2030, bringing its total commitment to $48bn for 2026–2030. The new funds will expand AWS data centre capacity in Mumbai and Hyderabad, providing access to custom AI chips, managed AI services, and developer tools. CEO Andy Jassy made the announcement in New Delhi during a meeting with Prime Minister Modi. The shift marks a strategic pivot from Amazon's earlier India focus on retail toward cloud and AI infrastructure, mirroring similar large-scale commitments from Microsoft and Google Cloud in the country. Amazon also cited broader economic targets including support for 3.8 million jobs and AI education for four million students.

Oracle cuts about 500 jobs in Romania as AI restructuring rolls on

Oracle has begun cutting approximately 500 jobs at its Romanian operations on June 25, 2026, marking the second significant layoff round in under a year following ~400 cuts in late 2025. The reductions are part of Oracle's ongoing global AI-driven restructuring, which has shrunk its worldwide headcount from ~162,000 to ~141,000 (about 13%) in a year. Oracle's annual report explicitly cites AI adoption as a driver of workforce reductions. The company is investing heavily in data centers tied to AI demand, including a major OpenAI commitment, and is partly funding that buildout through payroll cuts. Romania, home to one of Oracle's larger engineering and services footprints in central and eastern Europe (~4,000 employees), is particularly exposed. Despite revenue growth of 7.5% in 2025, Oracle's Romanian entities collectively posted net losses. A former employee suggests further cuts may follow.
