We are talking about the success of Sridhar Pinnapureddy, who laid the foundation stone of a Tier 4 data centre called CTRLS. Hailing from a middle-class family in Hyderabad, Sridhar had a keen interest in computers since school. At that time, he had made up his mind to succeed in the field of information technology. In order to become a successful IT entrepreneur, there were many ups and downs in Sridhar's life, but he never let his inner confidence end.

In 2001, he started his career as an Internet service provider. After working for a few years, he started losing business. Despite the terrible losses he paid all the people and upheld his faith towards the people. Not only this, even in such an odd situation, but he also kept himself and decided to do something new from scratch.

In 2006, after much deliberation, Sridhar talked about the idea of ​​a Tier 4 data centre with his team. At that time the technical team had raised their hands and investors were also against investing in data centre business. At that time there was a lot of challenges regarding the maintenance of difficult applications, they believed that these problems could go ahead. Despite this, Sridhar stepped towards this because he knew that it was the future.

Moving on with his idea, he founded CTRLS in 2008. The decision to go against the investors cost him dearly and almost all the big investors left him. However, Sridhar did not lose courage and went on working. In 2013, attracting the attention of investors once again with his work, Sridhar reassured all the investors who had left him.
