Vapor IO, Crown Castle bring AWS to the Kinetic Edge
Vapor IO and Crown Castle have jointly developed a service that seamlessly interconnects Vapor IO’s Kinetic Edge with Amazon Web Services via Crown Castle’s high-speed Cloud Connect. Technology integration and direct fiber will unlock new classes of applications, with this service enabling a new class of mobile and wireless edge applications that span the continuum from edge to core. Phil Olivero, VP of technology at Crown Castle, said “as Vapor IO rolls out the Kinetic Edge to new cities, we plan to extend our Cloud Connect to also connect to AWS in those locations. This will empower our mutual customers to build high-performance edge-enabled mobile applications using AWS.”
