About this episode
The episode discusses the shift from hyperscale data centers to edge data centers for AI applications.
Hyperscale data centers, (aka AI factories), are expanding rapidly to develop AI Large Learning Models. However, the notion of edge data centers for AI Inference and high-speed, low-latency applications is getting renewed attention. Rod Carter and Jake Remington, partners at the telecom law practice at Husch Blackwell, discuss with John Celentano, Inside Towers Business Editor, the issues related to planning, locating and operating edge data centers.
