Rittal Podcast Series: The Need for Speed
Edge computing is speeding up IT by bringing the network closer to the data to reduce latency and increase real-time analysis.
And as we’re seeing more automation and the application of sensors to enable the Internet of Things inside our warehouse and DC operations, more data and systems are being decentralized and localized to help control these new systems that are making the real-time supply chain a reality. However, Edge computing does come with its challenges.
