Former AWS India head Vaishali Kasture to join Microsoft; what she said about her new endeavour

Vaishali Kasture, former interim country head of Amazon Web Services (AWS) in India, has joined Microsoft as its SMC (small, medium & corporate) lead for India and South Asia. This marks the second departure of a top AWS executive to Microsoft in the past year, as the two companies compete for market share in the Indian cloud computing market. In September 2023, Kasture’s predecessor at AWS, Puneet Chandok, took over as Microsoft India and South Asia head.
