In the Midst of Technological Revolutions, Edge UOL is Born

In the Midst of Technological Revolutions, Edge UOL is Born

Participating in the birth of a company is something extraordinary. Anyone who has lived through this experience knows exactly what I am talking about. The contribution of each team member, with their skills, competencies, and diverse ideas, shapes the purpose and materializes what we envisioned for Edge UOL — the latest evolution in transforming business.

This journey, which began on December 3, 2021, introduced a cutting-edge alternative to the market, uniquely serving organizations across various sectors through technologies essential to business evolution in the digital world: Edge Computing, 5G, and next-generation IT infrastructure services.

Interestingly, Edge UOL (a UOL Group company) was born at a critical moment in the country’s technological evolution, just as it was about to experience 5G technology. This fifth generation of mobile networks will revolutionize countless business applications and change society’s daily life, transforming people’s lives. That is what innovation is all about.

5G confirms that the world is in constant flux and that we must reinvent ourselves at every moment. New technologies and possibilities are constantly being created. To give you an idea, according to the research firm OMDIA, 5G will be responsible for creating more than 22 million jobs and generating over $13 trillion in the global economy by 2035.

It is no coincidence that the 5G auction in Brazil was the largest in history, yielding 46 billion reais. According to news reports, it may have been the largest in the world as well! The technology is up to 20 times faster than 4G, supports many more devices per square kilometer (from 10k to 1M), offers low latency (from 10ms to less than 1ms), consumes less energy (due to new antennas), and allows for the creation of different virtual networks for various requirements using the same infrastructure. 5G is not just about connectivity; it is about business transformation.

Joining Forces with Edge Computing

Edge Computing complements 5G. The laws of physics prevent data from moving even faster, causing bottlenecks in large data centers where Cloud Computing resides. Therefore, a movement to decentralize the cloud toward the edge is now necessary, placing it as close as possible to the device generating the data.

Thus, response times will be faster, resulting in a better user experience. This processing at the edge and faster response time (low latency) is Edge Computing — the evolution of the cloud. It is a new form of infrastructure architecture that extends Private, Public, Multi, and Hybrid clouds to the edge and connects everything between them.

With the explosion of connected devices and new data sources, this architectural shift became inevitable. There are several use cases that will revolutionize habits and applications for companies and individuals alike, from advancements in telemedicine and tele-education to autonomous cars and Industry 4.0.

All of this relies on technologies that form the foundation for this revolutionary environment, generating unimaginable digital experiences for companies, their customers, and society. They are facilitators that significantly transform business management, boost productivity, enable collaborative work from any part of the planet, generate operational efficiency, and certainly elevate competitiveness to another dimension. In other words, they build a new technological and business ecosystem.

Living On The Edge!

My excitement, and that of the entire team, is justified because we succeeded in creating Edge UOL to fulfill our purpose: to architect, implement, and manage all this next-generation infrastructure. This is backed by our knowledge and experience in technology, following agile practices with a qualified security team and extensive automation. And with a special ingredient: a passion for technology and for everything we do here.

Edge UOL was and continues to be an indescribable value proposition. Together, let’s create this technological revolution!
