New tech frontiers: We’re just in the dawn of the edge computing age, says Michael Dell, chairman and CEO, Dell Technologies

At the recently concluded virtual Dell Technologies Summit 2021, Michael Dell, chairman and CEO of Dell Technologies, highlighted the fact that if we look around the world, whichever field a business operates in, they all have one thing in common— and that is an enormous amount of data.

“The amount of data in the world just keeps growing, the amount of time that it takes for the amount of data in the world to double keeps shrinking, because everything in the world is becoming intelligent, and now connected with 5G and low latency networks. The plot of any organisation is to use all of that to create competitive advantage and create success. And that requires new capabilities, new tools, new infrastructure,” said Dell.
