Leading Edge Data Centres (LEDC), an Australian Data Center firm, will use prefabricated certified edge data center technology from Schneider Electric, the leader in digital transformation of energy management and automation, to provide faster and more dependable connectivity for Australians in distant areas.
LEDC has enlisted Schneider Electric to design, build, commission, and maintain its Tier III edge data centers in order to satisfy the company’s evolving client needs.
Before being moved to the site, the data centers are designed, built, and tested in regional Australia eliminating many of the traditional construction complications and guaranteeing that every new facility is built with the same level of quality, sturdiness, and dependability as the last.
Schneider Electric and LEDC will collaborate to advance the most effective and reliable solutions in addition to dependability optimization, such as a number of edge data centers that are sized precisely to be most efficient for the community they serve.
“Leading Edge Data Centres was founded in 2019 with a mission to bridge the digital divide in Regional Australia… For years, regional Australian cities have put up with unreliable and costly internet connections, compared to their metropolitan counterparts. With Schneider Electric’s certified edge data centre, which can be quickly replicated in multiple regional sites across Australia, we are finally giving customers a more sustainable, cost-effective option and the ability to reliably access the cloud.” said Chris Thorpe, LEDC CEO and Founder.
Previously, potential clients of LEDC have experienced connectivity failures that cost in excess of $160,000 annually. Now, LEDC will create and construct a dependable prefabricated, repeatable, and certified edge data center with help from Schneider Electric and cutting-edge technology, saving its customers up to 80% of that expense.
“Amid today’s global pandemic, remote working became a necessity and digital disparities became more obvious… By partnering with Schneider Electric, LEDC has kick-started production, focusing on improved connectivity and reliability, along with options for cost-effective network rollout.” said Joe Craparotta, VP Strategic Customers & Segments at Schneider Electric.
As a result of the partnership between Schneider Electric and LEDC, clients will have more direct cloud access options and speedier connectivity through the network of edge data centers spread across regional Australia.
Additionally, it will offer stability and reliability, enabling clients to endure even the most severe Australian weather conditions with secure Tier III certified edge data centers, providing redundancy and fault tolerance as well as power outage protection.
And lastly, it will provide regional Australia, with quantifiable advantages for regional as well as national clients, including improved connection, affordable hosting, and the capacity to build IoT and smart cities across Australia through innovative growth infrastructure.
