From Telco To Tech Co
summary
Startups often lock into one hyperscaler and pay huge hidden bills — examples include firms spending 500 crores a year on compute while margins evaporate, and carriers facing egress fees that blow up storage costs. Solutions demonstrated: a bundled hyperscaler-style offering with generous egress, CPaaS single-API messaging to replace multiple SMS/WhatsApp integrations, an edge cloud of 120 edge data centers delivering 5–7 ms latency, multi-cloud connect to attach branches directly to Azure/AWS/Google and a carrier CDN to avoid single-CDN failure.
