“With the increase of mobile internet usage, awareness and use of the Internet of Things (IoT), and the release of 5G nationwide, customers have a need for their data to be located and accessed at the edge of the network,” comments Ernie Quick, CTO of DediPath. “Our dedicated servers offer lower latency to and from mobile users on the edge, which improves performance, accessibility and provides greater reach than traditional urban-based data center locations.”
“The edge market is critical for businesses embracing digital transformation, and the opportunities to build solutions that are viable for both today and tomorrow are possible,” comments Doug Recker, EdgePresence’s founder and CEO. “The industry is tending towards a more distributed infrastructure, leveraging network solutions that bring data closer to users, drastically improving capabilities and performance. We’re excited to be the company that is bringing those solutions to clients today while building fortified edge capabilities for tomorrow.”
Mr. Recker’s 25 years of success delivering cutting-edge data center and colocation services includes building multiple data center companies from the ground up through highly successful exits.
