About
Meter is an enterprise network infrastructure company founded in 2015 by Anil Varanasi and Suraj Varanasi and headquartered in San Francisco, California. The company offers a vertically integrated approach to enterprise networking: rather than requiring businesses to purchase hardware, hire network engineers, and manage vendors separately, Meter bundles hardware design, network software, and ongoing managed operations into a single subscription. Enterprises receive Meter-designed switches, access points, and security appliances — all managed through Meter's unified cloud platform — with 24/7 network operations support included. This model is analogous to how cloud providers abstract server infrastructure; Meter abstracts networking infrastructure for multi-site enterprises, real estate operators, and commercial property portfolios.
Arrcus develops the ArcOS network operating system and ACE platform, delivering disaggregated, hyper-scale routing and switching software for hyperscalers, telcos, and enterprises; raised $100M+ total; founded by Cisco veterans;
About
Arrcus is a networking software company founded in 2016 by Devesh Agarwal and a team of veterans from Cisco, Juniper, and other networking incumbents, and headquartered in San Jose, California. The company's core product is ArcOS, a high-performance network operating system built from the ground up for disaggregated networking — the model in which software is decoupled from proprietary hardware and runs on white-box switches or merchant silicon from vendors like Broadcom and Marvell. This approach allows hyperscalers, telecommunications carriers, and large enterprises to build flexible, cost-efficient network infrastructure without being locked into vertically integrated vendor stacks.
