Qwilt expands on the edge

Qwilt partners with major service, content and application providers worldwide, including Airtel, BT, Comcast, Telefonica, Verizon, and Vodafone, to provide a distributed architecture embedded directly within service provider access networks.

Alon Maor, CEO at Qwilt, said: “Through our Open Edge framework, we’ve unlocked access to the last mile of the network, igniting a global edge ecosystem capable of ultra-low latency compute and application delivery. Exceeding 2,000 edge nodes proves both the growing demand for hyper-local edge compute and the power of our platform to scale globally. Most importantly, this massive global infrastructure is now accessible through a single, programmatic API, making it easier than ever to build and deliver next-generation applications at the true edge.”

Qwilt said its Open Edge architecture offers hyper-local distribution, ultra-low latency compute and delivery, reduced network congestion, and ease of global last-mile access.

Maor added: “There are two key reasons why our Open Edge Cloud is growing eight times faster than traditional platforms. First, our deep partnership model puts edge nodes and origin servers directly into service provider access networks—already enabling over 150 Tbps of last-mile capacity. Second, we’ve made this massive global edge accessible via a single, standards-based API. That’s a game-changer for service providers and developers building the next wave of real-time applications.”
