Description
Summary:Low latency requirements are expected to increase with 5G telecommunications driving data and compute to EDGE data centers located in cities near to end users. This article presents a testbed for such data centers that has been built at RISE ICE Datacenter in northern Sweden in order to perform full stack experiments on load balancing, cooling, micro-grid interactions and the use of renewable energy sources. This system is described with details on both hardware components and software implementations used for data collection and control. A use case for off-grid operation is presented to demonstrate how the test lab can be used for experiments on edge data center design, control and autonomous operation.
