When you hear “data center,” it’s easy to picture a sprawl of physical plant and computing heft that seems too massive to make sense for your region and its business community. But an edge data center could be the distinguishing crown jewel you need — a site scaled to support local businesses in banking, healthcare, utility, and agriculture industries, among countless others.
Jason Monroe is the Customer Experience Practice Leader for Wintek Business Solutions, which has operated an edge data center in Lafayette, Ind., since 2016. Join him for an informative discussion of the advantages an edge data center can bring to your communities, how edge data centers differ from mega data centers you envision in your mind, the benefits of proximity, scalability, privacy, efficiency and security they offer to local / regional businesses, and examples of how Wintek’s data center puts its customers at the leading edge of IT innovation.
