Dave Littman: Let's start with the edge. You know, how do you guys define the edge? Ken Clipperton: Well, thanks for asking. Yeah, there's a lot of ambiguity around that. So, some analysts and individuals insist that edge means Internet of Things, you know, harsh environments, you know, in a cell tower, something like that. Others broaden that all the way about to anything outside the data center itself, the core data center. We're comfortable with an in-between definition, you know, fairly broad, but really and especially think about the edge as infrastructure where no IT staff is available. So if something goes wrong, you know, it's a problem. And like think about urgent care clinics, gas stations, retail stores, convenience stores and also those harsh Internet of Things environments. So that's how we think about the edge.

Ken Clipperton from DCIG explains how edge computing represents systems located outside the core data center, specifically in areas lacking IT personnel. This includes retail locations, healthcare clinics, and challenging Internet of Things settings, such as cell towers
