History & Notes
Synedge raised $759K in funding, including a $50K corporate round, and was backed by investors like Post Capital Partners and Technoport. Its platform emphasized real-time performance metrics for CDN switching, serving clients in media, gaming, and OTT sectors. After the 2018 acquisition by Ocom, no further public activity or service updates have been reported, suggesting full integration or discontinuation.
Telia Carrier was a leading provider with over 320 PoPs in 120 cities, known for its extensive fiber network and DDoS mitigation. The rebrand to Arelion reflects its shift to a standalone entity under Polhem Infra, focusing on global connectivity for enterprises and operators. No service discontinuation was reported, but the Telia Carrier brand is fully deprecated.
