At this point I\u2019m sure most of us have heard of edge data centers. And in the case of businesses that have many distributed locations (e.g. retail, manufacturing, industrial), it\u2019s not financially feasible (nor recommended) to upgrade all their sites at once. In a previous presentation (and white paper 256<\/a>), Kevin Brown, Schneider\u2019s CTO, described a logical way of identifying which edge data centers are most critical, and therefore, which are most in need of an upgrade.<\/p>\n

The next question then becomes, how do I go about improving the availability of my edge computing solutions<\/a>? That\u2019s what prompted the writing of a new white paper 280, Practical Guide to Ensuring Availability at Edge Computing Sites<\/a><\/em>. This white paper is written in simple terms with many practical and actionable availability improvements to your data center design<\/a> for edge. In fact, it\u2019s broken up into a series of checklists that you can print and use on a walk-through of your edge site.<\/p>\n

The checklists are broken down into eight systems:<\/p>\n
