Agile on the edge

The Challenge • INAP's clients are looking for edge computing capability for lower latency, scalable availability, and ways to quickly ramp up operations and create a dedicated data centre infrastructure. 

• INAP is often expected to create and implement these solutions in just 8 to 10 weeks. They needed a partner that could provide the highest-quality products, ensure reliability, and offer support and expertise throughout the product life cycle.

The Solution

Efficiency and Reliability with EcoStruxure
   Apps, Analytics and Services: Maintenance services
   Edge control: Building management software
   Connected products: Symmetra MV UPS (1.4 mW protection), Square D® medium-voltage switchgear, vertical exhaust duct racks, rack-mount PDU strips, Uniflair™ DX (Direct Expansion) and CW (Chilled Water) cooling systems

• Schneider Electric solutions provide a modular infrastructure which is crucial to INAP's edge computing strategy.

• Modular infrastructure to grow its own data centres in whichever locations customer needs dictate, and to quickly provide customers with the amount of capacity they need.

The Results
