Hostin Services

What Hostin Services does

Hostin Services Private Limited is a Pune, India-based technology group founded in 1999 by Rahul S Kurkure, operating across managed hosting, cloud infrastructure, DevOps, AI, CDN & edge, and security governance services. The company serves mid-market and enterprise customers primarily in India, with a stated base of 200+ enterprise clients and 25+ years of operational history. Its portfolio is structured across five focused brands: Cloud.in (managed cloud solutions holding multiple AWS competencies), HostIndia.net (managed hosting heritage brand), Evalix.ai (applied AI and model evaluation tooling), Hostin Academy (cloud engineering skilling platform), and Niyantrac (SaaS backup and rollback product for AWS services, listed on AWS Marketplace).

The company derives revenue from five streams: managed cloud services contracts, managed hosting subscriptions through HostIndia.net, SaaS subscriptions (notably Niyantrac via AWS Marketplace), professional services for cloud consulting and migration, and AI solutions through Evalix.ai. Pricing is enterprise quote-based with annual billing cadence and is not publicly disclosed. Distribution combines direct enterprise sales across major Indian cities (Pune, Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad) with global SaaS reach via AWS Marketplace and a US subsidiary (Hostin Services Corp, Delaware). The company is founder-led, self-funded, and profitable every year since founding, with no external institutional investment disclosed. In April 2026, the Cloud.in division achieved AWS Managed Service Provider (MSP) Partner status, validating its end-to-end managed cloud capabilities and positioning the company for further enterprise and FinOps-led expansion.
