Singapore – Conversant Solutions has been included in the 2025 Gartner Market Guide for Edge Distribution Platforms. This marks the second consecutive year the company appears in this Market Guide, which offers technology leaders an overview of providers operating within the expanding edge distribution landscape.
According to Gartner, “converging CDN, web security and edge compute capabilities have evolved the market for edge distribution platform (EDP) offerings.”
As a provider of network services, cloud security, and edge computing solutions, Conversant is committed to helping businesses optimise their digital operations. The company’s proprietary federated CDN model, the SwiftFederation, leverages partnerships with leading telecommunications providers to deliver high performance and low latency, particularly in Southeast Asia and Middle East, the emerging markets in the Asia region.
Conversant’s infrastructure spans more than 50 countries, with strong depth across Southeast Asia. Its federated CDN model – the SwiftFederation, delivered through long-standing collaborations with Tier-1 Internet Service Providers (ISPs) provides localisation, network diversity and optimised routing across markets with varied connectivity conditions. This approach supports organisations across streaming, gaming, ecommerce, digital publishing, and other digital services as they deliver content and applications across diverse regional environments.
The company has also expanded its security and edge compute portfolio.
- MaxiSafe WAAP, Conversant’s AI-driven Web Application and API Protection solution, is available through tiered plans designed for mid-market organisations, with custom deployment options for enterprises requiring more advanced configurations or integration support.
- Conversant’s GPU-as-a-Service and edge compute offerings enable workloads such as AI inference, media processing, and distributed application deployment – areas where organisations are scaling activity as part of broader digital transformation initiatives.
“We are pleased to be recognised in this year’s Market Guide,” said Ms Cheong Fun Hua, CEO at Conversant. “Our ongoing focus is to support organisations building and expanding across Southeast Asia and international markets, whether they require performance, security, or new capabilities at the edge. We remain committed to working closely with our partners and customers as their needs continue to evolve.”
As digital operations become more distributed and AI adoption increases, edge distribution platforms are expected to play a larger role in how organisations deliver secure and performant services. Conversant will continue strengthening its network performance, security, and edge compute capabilities to support customers navigating these shifts.
