Coredge, a next-generation AI and cloud platform provider, has chosen Lightbits Labs' software-defined storage to power its expanding AI cloud services. This partnership enables high-performance, scalable infrastructure using commodity hardware and standard Ethernet, moving away from costly and rigid legacy SAN systems.
Coredge specializes in cloud-native platforms optimized for performance-sensitive AI, Kubernetes, and OpenShift workloads. Following its acquisition by Sirius Digitech, the company is expanding to support large-scale AI adoption globally.
“AI workloads demand far more than raw capacity—they require predictable low latency and consistent performance at scale,” said Abhimanyu Bhatter, Co-Founder and Associate Vice President of Technology at Coredge. “Lightbits enables us to grow our business by delivering highly performant, premium services using open, software-defined, NVMe-based infrastructure that aligns with our operational strategy.”
Legacy SAN architectures posed challenges with high costs, operational complexity, and scaling constraints. Lightbits' NVMe/TCP-direct approach eliminates the need for specialized networking fabrics, delivering consistent low-latency performance over standard Ethernet.
Coredge's selection of Lightbits focuses on several core benefits tailored to cloud-native environments:
Keimpe Paulus, Vice President and EMEA Territory Lead at Lightbits Labs, said: “Lightbits provides the speed and predictability required for the latency-sensitive workloads run on Coredge’s platforms, while at the same time providing Coredge the ability to scale on commodity infrastructure cost-efficiently. We’re excited to support their goal to expand their platforms and services.”
This partnership positions Lightbits as a foundational element in Coredge's infrastructure strategy as it grows its AI and cloud offerings worldwide. The solution supports sovereign, secure deployments across on-premises, private clouds, partner data centers, and edge environments—without vendor lock-in.
Coredge's platforms are designed for enterprises, governments, and service providers needing full control over data residency and workload placement.
Lightbits' software-defined storage continues to prove its value for real-time analytics, transactional, and AI-driven applications by combining ultra-low latency with cost-effective scalability.
