Crawford first launched Vapor in 2015 with a new data center server platform called the Vapor Chamber. Vapor makes use of the Open DCRE (Data Center Runtime Environment), which is an open-source platform for data center workload automation that the company created.
The new Vapor Edge platform is built on top of OpenDCRE and helps to enable a distributed fabric for compute power where it’s needed, whether in the data center or at the network edge.
