Vapor IO Introduces Kinetic Edge Exchange for Edge Interconnection

Vapor IO has announced its new Kinetic Edge Exchange, described by Vapor IO as “the world’s first software-defined system for interconnection in edge locations.” 

The neutral host exchange will allow network operators, application developers, content providers and other Kinetic Edge users to cross-connect in edge meet-me rooms.



Vapor IO’s KEX will first be deployed in Chicago and Atlanta with Digital Realty.

“The Internet requires a new way to interconnect networks at the edge because edge applications demand an order-of-magnitude reduction in latency over the status quo,” said Cole Crawford, Founder and CEO of Vapor IO. “The Kinetic Edge Exchange delivers this capability on demand. 

“Until today, automated software-defined interconnection was not available at the edge, making it difficult or impossible for enterprises to deploy edge applications at scale,” he said.
