Edge Data Centre stories
Edge Data Centres are small data centres located on the edges of a network, allowing them to be closer to end users and devices. Edge Data Centres are part of the edge computing realm, which is a technology that brings networks closer to users. Closer to the data generator, this technology enables faster processing speed at greater volume.
Edge Data Centres are often used for time-sensitive data and provide delivery with less latency. These high-performance centres are used by most organisations working with IoT and big data. Edge Data Centres also have a smaller footprint as well, which makes them more efficient and effective.
