Ridge was founded in 2018 by Mati Lerner, co-CEO, Nir Sheffi, co-CEO and CTO, and Jonathan Seelig, Executive Chairman. We believe that Ridge will accelerate deployments and enable companies to develop a new generation of innovative and exciting apps,” he added. Just like Airbnb opened up infinite new hotel supply without owning any real estate, Ridge opens infinite new cloud supply without owning any data centers. “Infrastructure used to be a constraint for any cloud deployment, but with Ridge, that’s no longer true. “Ridge is basically extending cloud services to locations where there is a gap in public cloud coverage, or to applications for which a public cloud is not a great fit both of those scenarios are growing,” said Gigi Levy-Weiss, General Partner at NFX. It has the latitude to handle emerging location-dependent apps, such as the new wave of IoT applications,” he added. Ridge gives them that freedom: Our cloud is scalable on-demand, it doesn’t require any new CAPEX, and it’s easily included in any hybrid and multi-cloud architecture. “Companies and developers need the flexibility to best serve their applications anywhere they need.
“We’ve learned that no single cloud architecture is enough for the applications we’re seeing today,” said Jonathan Seelig, Executive Chairman, Ridge. Data centers can easily add Ridge’s public cloud services without needing the expertise to run the services themselves. Many of the world’s leading data centers have already partnered with Ridge, including T-Systems, NTT, and INAP. The Ridge cloud is built upon existing infrastructure in hundreds of data centers across the globe. Ridge users benefit from both the agility of a public cloud and the high performance of localized infrastructure. By providing developers with the building blocks to deploy anywhere in the world, Ridge closes existing cloud coverage gaps and helps companies reach customers anywhere in the world, including previously underserved locations. Ridge provides a solution for companies that need a flexible cloud architecture to meet their specific application requirements.
