A colocation data center is a type of data center facility in which multiple organizations can rent space to house their own computing and networking infrastructure. Colocation data centers provide a secure and reliable environment for hosting IT equipment, and offer a range of services such as power, cooling, and connectivity to the internet.
5G mobile edge computing (MEC) is a distributed computing paradigm that combines 5G mobile communication technology with edge computing. It involves placing computing resources at the edge of a 5G network, close to end users and devices, in order to bring computation and data storage closer to the devices that generate and consume them.
Edge computing brings computation and data storage closer to the devices that generate and consume them. It involves placing computing resources at the “edge” of a network, closer to end users and devices, rather than in a centralized data center or cloud.
