About Michael L.

The world is moving further and further into an increasingly digital age. But, outside of the heart of communications networks, digital inequality is skyrocketing.Hyperscale data centers focused in one or two cities leave the rest of their regions underserved; in these areas, unreliable and incomplete coverage harms businesses and public safety; and those trapped on the wrong side of the digital divide are left farther behind every day. Edge Centres complements these hyperscale data centers by picking up where they leave off.Edge Centres exists to solve this problem for underserved areas by providing a seamless, low-latency bridge between the hyperscale cloud and the end users. Using intelligent design and industry-leading technology, Edge Centres seeks to provide the same level of connectivity to end users as is enjoyed by those in close proximity to large hyperscalers.
