In today’s era of digital transformation, the perception of what a data center is and where it should be located continues to evolve. Many critical applications now require robust real-time analysis at the network edge, beyond the effective reach of centralized data centers and the cloud.

This whitepaper explores how this current need for edge computing power is fueling the demand for micro data centers and how space-saving micro data centers offer numerous benefits including:

• Rapid deployment
• Standardization
• High availability
• Manageability
• Security
• Reduced costs
• Scalability
• Ease of maintenance
