Read MoreHide Full Article
Lumen Technologies (LUMN - Free Report) has announced an investment in edge computing to expand the company’s platform by offering Lumen Edge Virtual Machine (VM) to its customers. It is available on the Lumen Marketplace and combines with the edge portfolio effortlessly.
The solution offers clients with access to “on-demand” computing, storage and secure networking, added the company.
Lumen continues to invest heavily in research and development to modernize digital experiences, meet the requirements of enterprises and improve customer experience.
The edge infrastructure and services offer various solutions like Lumen Edge Bare Metal, Lumen Network Storage, Lumen Edge Private Cloud and Lumen Edge Gateway to support enterprise innovation and applications of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
Customers get value from leveraging several compute configurations and storage options, and management and orchestration tools to accommodate data-intensive workloads and applications that require low latency at the cloud edge.
Lumen Edge VM provides users with low latency by leveraging the Lumen fiber network so that customers can work seamlessly on next-generation applications.
Additionally, organizations can utilize distributed computing services across multiple markets, giving them the accessibility to operate and communicate across expanded geographies. It also leverages open-source technology to support multiple operating systems and various configurations and storage options.
Apart from its technological benefits, it also helps to lower business expenses owing to a “Pay only for usage model" and no capital expenditure.
Lumen Edge Computing Solutions meets 97% of enterprise demand in the United States within 5 milliseconds of latency, per company reports. It also meets approximately 70% of enterprise demand in Germany, Belgium, the U.K., France and the Netherlands.
