Overview
Cedexis was a MultiCDN platform specializing in real-time traffic steering and performance monitoring, optimizing web and cloud application delivery across multiple CDNs and data centers. Founded in 2009 by Julien Coulon and Marty Kagan, it was acquired by Citrix in 2018 and integrated into its Intelligent Traffic Management (ITM) product. The platform was used by enterprises, including media outlets like L’Equipe, Le Figaro, and Le Monde, to enhance global web performance. Cedexis is now defunct, with its ITM product reaching end-of-life (EOL) in October 2025.
Teleport was a Solana-based decentralized ridesharing application that leveraged blockchain technology to provide a CDN-like infrastructure for transparent, intermediary-free data delivery. Launched publicly in 2024, it aimed to disrupt traditional ridesharing with smart contracts and crypto payments but ceased operations in 2025 due to insufficient market readiness. The service is now defunct, with no active operations or infrastructure support.

History & Notes
Cedexis was known for its Radar, Fusion, Sonar, and OpenMix tools, which provided real-time visibility and programmable traffic management across CDNs and clouds. Its acquisition by Citrix aimed to bolster hybrid and multi-cloud performance but faced challenges, including a notable DDoS attack in May 2017 impacting French media clients. The decision to sunset ITM reflects Citrix’s strategic shift, with no reported plans for a direct successor. NS1 Connect has emerged as a key alternative, leveraging similar DNS-based steering technology.
Teleport aimed to create a cost-effective, transparent ridesharing ecosystem using Solana’s blockchain but struggled with low adoption and regulatory uncertainties around crypto payments. The complexity of onboarding mainstream users to a blockchain-based system was a significant barrier. No evidence suggests a revival or successor service as of August 16, 2025.
