Volta Networks is rethinking routing.
Volta Networks delivers the first cloud native routing engine which reduces cost by an order of magnitude by using the cloud to optimize routing for low cost, white box switches. Unlike legacy routers or routing appliances, Volta enables much lower cost by virtualizing and scaling the routing control plane while using automation to accelerate new network services.
Read the press release and latest news.
We are taking the control plane and putting it into the cloud. This is the perfect complement to commercially available low cost, high-performance white box switches. This is made possible by the Volta Elastic Virtual Routing Engine running any private, public or hybrid cloud.
With our full-featured control plane running in the cloud, customers can start small and build large networking infrastructures that provide unparalleled levels of flexibility and scalability at a fraction of the cost of conventional chassis-bound routers.

Cloud-based applications and increasing traffic at the provider edge are driving major network changes that will require a significant investment from service providers Crosshaul, C-RAN, NFV and 5G mean major investments as well as new service opportunities from edge computing to network slicing for IoT, video at the edge and connected cars. These trends are dramatically changing the volume and nature of traffic on provider networks and creating a new mandate to route traffic as close to the edge as possible.
Roz Roseboro, Heavy Reading’s Principal Analyst for Cloud Infrastructure & Management and Volta’s VP of Marketing, Hugh Kelly, examined these trends and how provider networks will have to evolve to accommodate them. Should providers continue to invest in legacy routers? Is routing suited to NFV? How can routers be virtualized to meet the changing traffic patterns, economic realities and needed scale of the new provider edge?

Why Volta
Reduces TCO by 90%
Volta allows network operators to take full advantage of low cost white box switches while providing the equivalent cost reduction by deploying the control plane in the cloud. Customers will see TCO savings of up to 10x when compared with legacy routing platforms.The Elastic Cloud
As a native cloud application, Volta takes full advantage of the elastic nature of the cloud and ensures that resources are used efficiently regardless of the scope of the deployment. By building on cloud native technologies, we give the operator the means to scale out instead of being forced to scale up with more expensive routers.Scales Virtual Routing
The VEVRE is used to create Virtual Routers (VR) which consist of one VRP and physical or virtual ports on a device running a vAgent. We lead the industry with up to 255 VRs on a single device, allowing network operators complete flexibility when connecting applications, services, customers or networks.
