Akamai Technologies–backed IO River raises $20 million Series A to accelerate Multi-Edge adoption
AKAM
New Projects/Investments
  • IO River secured a $20 million Series A funding round led by Venture Guides and New Era, with participation from S Capital and private investors Ofir Ehrlich and Pavel Gurvich.
  • The proceeds will fuel IO River’s Multi-Edge platform, which decouples edge infrastructure from add-on services, unbundling legacy CDN offerings from providers like Akamai, Cloudflare and Fastly.
  • IO River’s neutral virtual layer manages configuration, AI-based traffic steering and observability across multiple edge providers, handling over 200 PB of traffic per month and simplifying multi-edge deployments for enterprises.
  • Recent outages at AWS, Cloudflare and Azure underscore single-provider risks; IO River democratizes resilient, cost-efficient multi-edge architectures for businesses of all sizes.
