LUMEN
equal because either they don ' t have the network , or the hosting ability , or the public cloud edge , metro edge and deep edge capabilities that stem from Lumen ' s ability to deliver network at the pace of compute .
Changing the face of an industry If any one thing differentiates Lumen from its competitors it is its combination of network strength , data center footprint and extensive managed services experience in operating and integrating hybrid environments . It ' s able to bridge clouds , IT infrastructure and the edge for low-latency , high-capacity , secure workloads and applications . Lumen ' s ability to deliver compute on customer premises with near-zero latency , or within its deep metro facilities designed for 5 milliseconds of latency or better , provides customers with the capability they need to acquire data , analyze patterns in near real-time and derive value from digital interactions .
For a technology-driven enterprise , software development should no longer be driven by requests from operations , Shawn Draper summarizes : “ Technology teams are moving too fast for that , delivering capability in anticipation of operational requirements , and shifting from custom software development to development on a common platform . As 2025 approaches the network is increasingly dependent on network function virtualization ( NFV ): right now we have a hardware-enabled network , at our edge and at our core , but we are moving to high-density compute with virtual network infrastructure over the top .”
