Hyderabad, November 2026: DE-CIX India, India’s largest Internet Exchange and interconnection platform, has introduced ‘India’s First Digital Emergency Kit’ in Hyderabad to help organisations prepare for connectivity disruptions and strengthen digital resilience. The initiative is aimed at Hyderabad’s growing IT, Global Capability Centre (GCC), SaaS, AI, cloud, data-centre, fintech, cybersecurity, telecom, e-commerce and digital services ecosystem, where reliable connectivity is critical to business operations.
The Digital Emergency Kit focuses on preparing before disruption, building redundancy, planning alternative connectivity paths and maintaining business continuity across scenarios such as network outages, cyber incidents, infrastructure failures, human error and other unforeseen disruptions. At the centre of this approach is ‘Digital Resillience’, the interconnection layer that brings networks, cloud platforms, data centres, enterprises and digital services together through more direct, diverse and resilient connectivity paths.
The initiative comes at a time when Hyderabad continues to strengthen its position as a major technology and digital innovation hub, with a strong concentration of IT companies, GCCs, cloud and data-centre infrastructure, AI and digital businesses. In this context, Mr. Suhaib Logde, Strategic Business Growth Leader, DE-CIX India said, “Hyderabad has evolved into a critical technology hub, with a strong concentration of IT companies, Global Capability Centres, cloud and data-centre infrastructure, AI and digital businesses. As organisations become increasingly dependent on digital infrastructure, connectivity resilience needs to be considered as part of business continuity. Through the Digital Emergency Kit, we want businesses to think beyond recovery and prepare their connectivity infrastructure in advance, including through diverse connectivity paths and proactive planning for different disruption scenarios.”
The initiative is particularly relevant as Hyderabad’s digital ecosystem increasingly relies on connectivity for cloud applications, AI workloads, SaaS platforms, digital payments, cybersecurity operations, data-centre infrastructure and other internet-dependent services. By encouraging organisations to assess connectivity dependencies, build redundancy and plan alternative routes, the Digital Emergency Kit aims to make digital resilience an integral part of infrastructure and business-continuity planning.
DE-CIX India currently operates Internet Exchanges across Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai, Kolkata, Hyderabad and Bengaluru, interconnecting more than 630+ networks across India and globally. Through the Digital Emergency Kit, DE-CIX India aims to make digital resilience an integral part of India’s digital infrastructure and business-continuity planning.
