When milliseconds matter

Edge Computing is an extension to your cloud environment, benefitting from real-time processing at the edge instead of sending data to the cloud and back which takes time.

Bringing together the advances in 5G and Edge Computing is offering a technology and user experience not previously possible before. Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) is about where milliseconds of latency really count.

What Dedicated MEC brings to your business

Dedicated MEC enables real-time processing at the edge for apps requiring ultra-low latency, such as mixed reality, video analytics, and autonomous vehicles. Dedicated MEC is deployed at a customer’s site and is dedicated to one business, thus providing regulatory compliance as data is stored onsite.

Edge Computing processes the data close to the point of origin or consumption, meaning you can add intelligence to much of the equipment that sits within operations – and apply artificial intelligence-powered automation at those end points. This is a reason why early adoption includes manufacturers implementing MEC in their plants as part of their Industry 4.0 plans.
