the data they generate must operate at low latency , as well as high capacity ”, is the advice of Simon Michie , the CTO of Pulsant , to data centres looking to stay on top of the curve .
“ Without such capabilities , an IoT implementation is destined to fall short of expectations .”
Furthermore , as more and more data is time sensitive , it will need to be processed at the edge . As a result , in turn ,
“ IoT is also fueling the growth in edge data centres ”, White adds .
In order to manage IoT requirements – both the increasing data demands from consumers , and IoT technologies that are being deployed on the data centre site itself – data centres will need to utilise AI and ML to process data more efficiently , while using edge data centres and deploying singlemode fibre to ensure their speeds are fast enough to handle this capacity .
