“The edge is a very exciting place for a data center, but most don’t get a front-row seat to that reality every day. To us, International Data Center Day is about celebrating the innovations happening here and spreading the word about the abundance of use cases currently in development in order to inspire tomorrow’s problem solvers. Data centers, in conjunction with cloud and carrier interconnection, are at the core of revolutionary capabilities that transcend individual business verticals, communities and users. Whether it’s IoT, Augmented Reality, Cloud Gaming, 5G or beyond, 1623 Farnam couldn’t be more excited to help amplify the progress this industry is making or the innovations still yet to come.”
