    Is CloudPe Right for You?

    Choose CloudPe if:

    • Your workloads have outgrown what a global commodity cloud platform can offer Indian enterprise customers
    • You need a broader GPU range like NVIDIA H200, H100, A100, L4, and RTX Pro 6000, purpose-built for serious AI and ML workloads
    • You are paying Rs. 3,350/month for 2 vCPU 8GB on Vultr. CloudPe is Rs. 1,182, INR billed, zero egress fees
    • You need Indian-owned and Indian-governed infrastructure for DPDP, RBI, SEBI, or IRDAI compliance. Vultr has India data centres but operates under US jurisdiction.
    • You need 120+ L2/L3 engineers available 24/7 with under 2 hour resolution

    Choose Vultr if:

    • You are a small team needing globally distributed infrastructure across multiple international geographies where Indian compliance and enterprise-grade GPU are not primary requirements

    Why Indian Businesses Choose CloudPe

    Purpose-built for India — the infrastructure, compliance, and support that Vultr can't match.

    Next-Gen H200 GPUs

    Vultr's India GPU fleet runs A100 and A40 — last-generation hardware. CloudPe deploys NVIDIA H200, delivering up to 4× better AI training throughput at competitive INR pricing.

    India-Resident Engineering Team

    Vultr has no local India team. CloudPe's engineers are based in India, speak your language, understand your compliance environment, and are reachable in your time zone.

    3 More India Locations

    Vultr covers Mumbai and Bengaluru. CloudPe adds Chennai, Hyderabad, and Delhi NCR for true pan-India coverage with <5ms latency to all major cities.

    INR Billing + Compliance

    Vultr bills in USD and is not RBI-compliant. CloudPe bills in INR with GST invoices and meets RBI, SEBI, and DPDP Act requirements — essential for regulated Indian industries.

    What Indian Regulations Actually Require

    For Indian businesses, where your data is stored is a legal decision. Here are some compliance requirements you need to follow.

    Physical Location vs Governance

    Vultr operates data centres in India. But the platform is owned, operated, and legally governed by a US corporation subject to US law including CLOUD Act provisions. For Indian businesses under DPDP, RBI, SEBI, or IRDAI, the question is not just where the data sits but who controls the platform it sits on.

    DPDP Act 2023

    Indian ownership and governance matters under DPDP's accountability framework. CloudPe is Indian-owned, Indian-operated, and subject to Indian jurisdiction only.

    RBI Compliance

    For banks, NBFCs, payment aggregators, and fintechs, Indian regulatory comfort with foreign platform governance is a growing concern regardless of physical data centre location. CloudPe removes that concern by design.

    SEBI and IRDAI

    Demonstrating vendor accountability and control over data governance on a foreign-operated platform requires significant documentation. On CloudPe, Indian regulatory alignment is structural, not documented after the fact.

    Common Questions

    Vultr is cheaper than AWS. Why would I hassle more?

    CloudPe is cheaper than Vultr. Rs. 1,182 per month versus Rs. 4,080 for equivalent compute. Rs. 3.10 per GB for object storage versus Vultr's object storage pricing. Rs. 0 egress fees versus Vultr's outbound bandwidth charges. The move is not a cost increase. It is a cost reduction with compliance included.

    We use Vultr's block storage and object storage.

    CloudPe's object storage is S3-compatible. Vultr's object storage is also S3-compatible. Your existing tools, SDKs, and integrations move without modification. Block storage works the same way. The migration of storage workloads is technically straightforward.

    Vultr has bare metal options we use.

    Leapswitch's bare metal infrastructure is what CloudPe is built on. 1,900+ servers, 20+ years of bare metal operations, on-site engineering teams in every data centre. If your Vultr bare metal workloads need to move, the infrastructure receiving them has more depth and more operational history than the platform you are leaving.

    We are not sure our team can manage an OpenStack platform.

    CloudPe's portal is built for teams coming from standard cloud platforms. The concepts are familiar, the APIs are industry-standard, and the learning curve is significantly lower than the gap between any two major cloud platforms. CloudPe's 120+ engineers are also available 24/7 to support your team through any transition questions. Support that Vultr's ticket system does not replicate.

    Migration risk is our main concern.

    CloudPe runs a parallel environment during migration. Vultr stays live while CloudPe is set up and validated. Your team signs off before anything switches over. Downtime is measured in minutes for most standard workloads. The process is structured and the engineering team is with you throughout.

    CloudPe vs Vultr — Common Questions

    CloudPe offers NVIDIA H200 (141GB HBM3e, 3958 TFLOPS) and L4 (24GB GDDR6) in India. Vultr offers A100 and A40, which are the previous generation. For LLM training and inference, the H200 provides dramatically higher throughput — crucial for cost efficiency at scale.

    Yes. CloudPe provides free migration from Vultr. We create snapshots of your instances, migrate them, and handle DNS/IP updates. No downtime for most workloads.

    Yes and more. CloudPe covers all standard Vultr use cases — VMs, Kubernetes, object storage, bare metal — plus adds native GPU compute, INR billing, and Indian regulatory compliance.

    Both offer 24/7 support, but CloudPe's team is India-based, available in IST hours, and understands local compliance and business contexts. Vultr's support is US-based, which can mean delays for Indian customers with time-sensitive issues.
