Autodesk today announced the expansion of its localised data offerings to include India, providing customers with the ability to store and manage project data locally. With India now available as a primary project data storage location, businesses and public sector organisations, especially in regulated sectors such as government, infrastructure, and utilities, can satisfy customer requirements and preferences while benefiting from enterprise-grade security, privacy and recoverability. 

According to organisations surveyed for Autodesk’s 2025 State of Design & Make report, digital transformation is driving ROI in AECO (architecture, engineering, construction and operations) industries by 50% in key areas like productivity, innovation and customer satisfaction. However, in India, 37% of organisations express a lack of trust in tools due to issues like data security. The India regional offering addresses this concern by unlocking access to secure cloud collaboration tools with regional storage. 

• Autodesk expands its regional offerings to include India, enabling secure, high-performance cloud collaboration by providing more choice and control for customers in regulated sectors such as infrastructure, government, and utilities.
• Customers in India can now choose India as their primary storage location for Autodesk Docs, BIM Collaborate, and BIM Collaborate Pro project data.

AECO customers can now choose India as their primary project data storage region when using Autodesk Docs, Autodesk BIM Collaborate, and Autodesk BIM Collaborate Pro. This storage capability supports Autodesk’s commitment to provide more options for our customers to collaborate in the cloud and provides organisations with the tools they need to manage project data effectively within local regions. 

India is at a pivotal moment in its digital transformation journey, where the convergence of infrastructure growth and data-driven innovation is reshaping industries. As companies look to accelerate this transformation, prioritising data regionalisation is becoming a strategic imperative, enabling trust, transparency, and seamless collaboration. The newly introduced India-based regional storage offering will empower businesses and public institutions to harness the full potential of cloud-powered design and construction, while delivering international standards of data integrity and performance,” said Kamolika Peres Gupta, Vice President, India and SAARC, Autodesk. 

“India is a strategic growth market for Autodesk, and we are launching focused initiatives to offer tailored design and make solutions suiting the Indian realities. The expansion of the regional storage offering to India is another step in the same direction that reiterates our commitment to India by supporting India’s vision for a resilient, tech-enabled infrastructure while empowering customers to lead with confidence in a digital-first environment.” Peres added.

“AWS is proud to deepen our decades-long strategic partnership with Autodesk through their expansion of regional data offerings, enabling customers to store their data closer to where they operate,” said Colin Lazier, vice president of Databases at AWS.

“By leveraging AWS’s global infrastructure across the UK, Germany, India, Japan, and Canada, Autodesk is addressing the growing demand for data residency while delivering the performance, security, and scalability that architecture, engineering, construction, and operations professionals need. This expansion reflects our shared commitment to providing customers with the flexibility and control they require to accelerate their digital transformation journeys.” Lazier added.

India now joins the United States, European Union, Australia, United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, and Canada in benefiting from Autodesk’s global regional storage offerings. In June 2025, Autodesk also introduced localised BIM solutions, tailored towards India’s requirements of building smarter, efficient and sustainable infrastructure of the future.
