Not to my knowledge. There are some general principles that apply to any edge deployment but I am not aware of any specific industry standard.

There isn’t one flavor of edge infrastructure today and there likely won’t be just one in the future. The battle for the edge is far from over; the options for how and where to deploy technology solutions for edge are still being explored. But time to value, cost effectiveness and agility will continue to rule for decision makers. The trick is in challenging assumptions on operational management and solution cost. Those who crack the nut on delivering edge without charging a premium for location and overhead will win the day.

We are currently working on moving from on premise to hosted data centers using modern infrastructure. Internally, there is a lot of discussion around how often our technologists will need to visit the data centers to perform work once the data centers are in service. Does your organization keep metrics of how often your techs need to visit your data centers and are willing to share?
