Details
Learn how computing data at the Edge will connect everything.
We believe in a truly connected world. This can only be facilitated by an all-encompassing edge ecosystem. This edge will be the most transformative opportunity for the next decade.
The trend for a more distributed IT architecture will multiply and expand with the convergence of new technologies and developments such as IoT, 5G, AI, autonomous cars and smart cities, connected things, micro-datacenters and Edge facilities. This will enable new ways of analysing and managing the data needed to connect society and drive change.
With strong market drivers, the shift to Edge represents the most profound change that will impact possibly for decades to come. Early deployment particularly evident in North America is expected to achieve significant growth over the next 5 years globally with industry predictions of connections to 25 billion devices, and 50 billion installed or embedded sensors.
