Modular Life Solutions Unveils EdgePod™ Data Centers in Advance of 5G Launching No-Cost Evaluation Program
JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Nov. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Modular Life Solutions (MLS) proudly announces its launch of their EdgePod™ containerized "edge" point of presence (PoP) environments. Each single or multi-tenant EdgePod provides the complete infrastructure needed to deploy standard servers, storage, CDN, communications equipment, routers, as well as other equipment and solutions. Over the next two years, MLS will deploy hundreds of EdgePod PoPs across the United States to facilitate Edge Computing. Telco carriers, content delivery networks (CDNs), cloud providers, web scale businesses, transportation enterprises, and many other innovative businesses will benefit by positioning co-located IT solutions in the multi-tenant EdgePods. Deployed directly adjacent to cell towers and other strategic locations, EdgePods facilitate low latency compute, content delivery, and caching.
Rollout has already commenced in Jacksonville, FL with their first 50kw EdgePod fully utilized by customer deployments. Q1 will bring additional Southeast locations with immediate nationwide expansion. MLS has strategically secured hundreds of cellular tower locations near fiber and power infrastructure so businesses can efficiently service their customers. EdgePod is the lowest cost edge data center solution available and MLS is offering enrollment for a no-cost evaluation for customers interested in exploring their power solution. CEO, Doug Recker, says, "We are bringing the most innovative and efficient solution to Edge Computing when and where clients need it. The consumption of content, access to applications and need for data is growing at an enormous rate and by positioning at the true edge, closest to the end user, we are delivering it faster and more securely than anyone thought imaginable."
Built using 12, 20, and 40 foot shipping containers, EdgePods deliver extensive benefits:
- ADAPTABLE - built for the workloads and use cases of a hybrid cloud and edge world
- COST EFFECTIVE – acquisition, deployment and operations
- VERSATILE POWER – 20kw to 100kw solutions using single and three phase power
- UNPRECEDENTED SECURITY - designed to be multi-tenant and secure from the beginning including patent pending "mantrap", rolling cabinets, double locking doors, and 24-7-365 monitoring
- MINIMAL FOOTPRINT - varying size (from 12' to 40' long and 8' wide) to meet the constraintsof a wide variety of deployment locations
- ROBUST - Built from ISO standard containers to deliver the same high performance that has been tested on the world's oceans through hurricanes and extreme weather and to utilize standard DOT compliant transportation
- RELIABILITY – Meets requirements N, N+1, and 2N
MLS builds their EdgePods with the same exacting technical standards expected in legacy data centers. They have partnered with industry leaders, Stulz, to provide cooling solutions and Tripp Lite for power and data center components. In addition to multi-tenant solutions, EdgePods are also ideal for single-tenant uses at manufacturing, distribution, retail, office, parking garages, or other edge locations.
