With new advances in technology—like augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR) and the internet of things (IoT)—and the rising demand for wireless data, more companies are looking to edge computing to accelerate innovation. By deploying edge data centers and edge servers near the point of transmission, these networks make it easier for organizations to support customers and accommodate the latest technologies without increasing network congestion and latency. To learn more about use cases and how edge computing fits into your connectivity needs, download our Edge Essentials Kit today.

Greater speed equals less latency. When data has less distance to travel, it gets there much quicker. Seconds become milliseconds, which means better response times for anything connected to your network.
When computing happens locally, less data is sent out over large cloud networks—reducing traffic and allowing more devices and data-intensive applications to function properly without slowing down everyday network use.
Reduce risk with decentralization. When networks are no longer reliant on large data hubs, the impact of a cyberattack is greatly reduced.
Get the capabilities of cloud computing with the benefits of a privately positioned data center. And since edge solutions provide their own data collection, there’s less need to invest heavily in data storage.
When data centers become a part of local infrastructure, additional location-specific data can be incorporated into applications operating on the edge. This will especially be critical for AI and machine-learning technologies, where every data point matters.
