In a statement, the company added that its VDC-Edge service together with its extensive fibre and 5G networks enables companies and public administrations to enjoy the benefits they would obtain if they deployed their systems and applications on-premise. The accelerated data processing capabilities and around 10-millisecond latencies will serve to power artificial Intelligence for real-time decision-making, multi-site and distributed robotics, virtual, augmented and mixed reality solutions, online video games, touch screen internet and future autonomous vehicles, among other sectors.
In addition, like cloud-based solutions, Edge Computing allows customers to access the latest technologies without having to make large investments in IT to cope with specific workload peaks, said Telefonica, adding that customers will also benefit from increased security since their data will never leave the company’s network.
