Vasona Networks’ flagship product is the SmartAIR, which is available as an appliance or virtualized solution. The SmartAIR sits between the RAN and the core, at the edge of the network, where it can assess cell-level congestion in real time and take action to preserve customer experiences across videos, social networking, audio streaming, and web browsing.

Vapor IO provides an end-to-end platform (hardware and software) and colocation services for edge computing. The company’s Vapor Chambers are uniquely circular, patented data center rack enclosures that can be placed in harsh environments, such as at the base of cell towers. They snap together like Legos: A 3-person crew can build a micro data center in half a day. The company’s Vapor Software makes it possible to run thousands of edge data centers, remotely. For example, its OpenDCRE software runs as a service in every location, thus providing operators with a common API for analyzing and controlling the infrastructure.
