The Edge
The future has arrived - and it's on the Edge.

With the rise in Edge computing needs, businesses need to evolve their data storage to address the specific requirements demanded by the technology.
Edge computing and micro data centres are different sides of the same coin. Edge computing can be thought of as the ‘what’, while MDCs are an element of how the technology is implemented.
Micro Data Centres are strategically designed to overcome the data storage and usage challenges the Edge concept brings.
Micro Data Centres and Edge Computing
There are six main reasons why Micro Data Centres are the ideal choice for your Edge computing deployments.

How our micro data centres enable the Edge
Future-proofing data storage needs will play a crucial role in every company’s technical architecture. Much in the same way that the internet revolutionised the workplace, so Edge computing is set to have a similarly dramatic impact on every element of business. As Edge computing becomes an essential part of every business, we have created a solution that tackles all edge challenges.
