Problem
Legacy edge infrastructure consists of many variants of custom appliances that, while efficient for targeted use cases in space, power, and cost, run fractured software stacks with custom or scaled-down frameworks on resource-constrained compute. This prevents the use of well-accepted, open cloud-native software stacks and hinders flexible, software-defined application rollout at the edge.
Solution
Kenyi Technologies is developing an Edge Infrastructure compute platform that combines an ARM ecosystem server-grade CPU chiplet with a Kenyi Edge Server DPU chiplet in a single package, delivering a server processor with appliance-like efficiency in cost, power, and space. The platform enables the use of standard cloud-native software stacks at the edge, supporting use cases such as virtual RAN with lookaside hardware acceleration, video analytics, data analytics, and secure chatbot applications. By leveraging chiplet technology, the solution brings benefits of cloud compute to the edge, including turnkey software application rollout via CI/CD, flexible software-defined applications, reduced OPEX, and vendor lock-in mitigation. The design is intended to live within operator CAPEX/OPEX constraints, enabling deployment within baseline equipment refresh budgets and minimizing speculative spend while supporting 6G readiness and AI-native airlink evolution.
Target Audience
Primary customers are telecommunications operators deploying vRAN and edge infrastructure, as well as enterprises running video analytics, data analytics, secure chatbot, and AI inferencing workloads at the edge.
Features
- Chiplet architecture pairing ARM server-grade CPU (e.g., ADTechnology's 2nm ADP620 Neoverse) with Kenyi's custom Edge Server DPU for hardware acceleration
- Lookaside hardware acceleration for telecom vRAN Distributed Unit (DU) solutions, improving power efficiency and scalability at cost points comparable to legacy appliances
- Support for AI inferencing services at the edge with low-latency motivation, including physical agentic AI and AI-RAN use cases
- Flexible, software-defined application layer enabling cloud-native stacks, CI/CD workflows, and migration from proprietary appliances to COTS servers
- Designed as an incremental upgrade path from 5G to 6G, avoiding wholesale network gear replacement and fitting within operator refresh budgets
