The alliance will allow Datacenters.com to offer EdgePresence’s EdgePod data centers and edge colocation services to its network of independent sales agents, consultants, brokers and MSPs. EdgePresence’s Edge Data Centers (EDCs) are modular, purpose-built data centers, comprehensively and compactly designed to include critical power, monitoring, physical security and cooling. Located at targeted locations at the base of cell towers, key real estate, and enterprise campus locations, these EDCs will enable customers to colocate workloads at the “far edge” to further reduce latency and improve performance for select applications.
“We’re excited to partner with EdgePresence to offer modular and edge data center services on the Datacenters.com marketplace,” states Mike Price, Chief Technology Officer at Datacenters.com. “As edge use cases come to life and customers increasingly demand low latency, edge computing locations become critical to IT infrastructure deployment.”
