Cost was a smaller factor than politics; the Indian government wanted the private keys for our certs in order to let FB put a POP there. That was an absolute dealbreaker, so we served India from Singapore and other POPs in nearby countries. Regarding building a datacenter, that's much higher risk since it's a $100M-1B capital investment. I'm guessing both Facebook and Google see too much volatility to make the risk worth it. It could be an expensive paperweight if the Indian government changed their minds. |
