Intel quietly acquires private 5G software provider Ananki
Intel has acquired private 5G network provider Ananki, several months after the startup spun out of the non-profit Open Networking Foundation (ONF) to commercialize open-source network technologies. The acquisition was confirmed Monday on LinkedIn by Guru Parulkar, PhD, who was co-founder and CEO of Ananki and executive director of the Open Networking Foundation. Intel declined to comment on the Ananki acquisition and instead only confirmed a development that Parulkar said was related, that the ONF’s development team has joined Intel’s Networking and Edge Group.
