Tripp Lite’s Micro Data Centers Named Top 100 Finalist for Chicago Innovation Awards

Solutions Provide Easy Implementation in Edge Computing Applications

Chicago, IL (October 15, 2019)—Tripp Lite, a global manufacturer of power protection and connectivity solutions, is a Top 100 Finalist for the 18th Annual Chicago Innovation Awards for its line of EdgeReady™ Micro Data Centers. The awards celebrate the most innovative new products and services in the Chicago region across all organization sizes, sectors and industries.

Out of 450 nominees, Tripp Lite’s Micro Data Centers were included on the list of finalists for supporting easy deployment of edge-of-network computing. Micro data centers conveniently and cost‐effectively enable edge computing in locations where dedicated IT space is unavailable and impractical or cost‐prohibitive to retrofit. Tripp Lite offers the broadest selection of options for customizing a micro data center, stocks more configurations than any other provider and ships the solutions sooner than anyone else.

“The growing reliance on edge computing for applications like the Internet of Things is fueling the use of micro data centers. Gartner predicts that data processed outside core or cloud data centers will grow from 10% currently to 50% by 2022,” said Tony Locker, Tripp Lite’s Vice President of Product Management, Enterprise Solutions. “By offering expertly configured micro data centers and a broad selection of options for customization, we help IT managers get the exact solution they need for edge-of-network applications in less time than ever before.”

The Chicago Innovation Awards will be announced October 28 at Chicago’s Harris Theater.
