Lightstorm scores win at Asian Telecom Awards 2025
The company’s accolade highlights its efficient initiative in revolutionising digital connectivity with its Polarin DCI Wave.
Lightstorm was honoured with the Infrastructure Initiative of the Year - India accolade at the Asian Telecom Awards 2025, which recognised its automation network solution, Polarin DCI Wave.
Polarin DCI Wave, the world’s first Layer 0/1 automation network solution, is transforming the backbone of digital connectivity by combining robotic automation with software-defined orchestration at the optical layer. With its unmatched efficiency, speed, and scalability, it tackles the key challenges of traditional Data Center Interconnect (DCI) solutions, such as long setup times, limited scalability, and high costs.
Its offerings include a range of groundbreaking features that make it faster and more flexible than existing systems. Amongst these are its under-10-minute provisioning, real-time feasibility checks, and dynamic scalability, in which bandwidth can be expanded in 10 Gbps increments or more.
Polarin DCI Wave uses advanced robotics to automate the setup and management of the physical (Layer 0) and transport (Layer 1) layers of the network–reducing project timelines from months to a matter of minutes. This automation eliminates manual processes, speeding up operations and reducing human errors.
Furthermore, the system features a one-of-a-kind Single Pane of Glass (SPOG) interface, which offers enterprises real-time visibility into network performance, including metrics like latency and uptime.
Polarin DCI Wave is not just about faster connections—it's about enabling business growth and innovation. By integrating high-speed fibre links with intelligent automation, Polarin DCI Wave accelerates data transfer and processing, which then helps enterprises deliver new services and solutions faster.
The game-changer product is already live in over 60 data centres. With a 99.99% uptime guarantee, this ultra-reliable fibre network ensures consistent performance for any enterprise need.
Polarin DCI Wave is setting new standards for connectivity infrastructure. As the only solution of its kind, it’s paving the way for a new era of digital transformation.
