EdgeConneX® has announced a partnership with the Midwest Internet Cooperative Exchange (MICE) to build a new remote MICE node into its Minneapolis-based Edge Data Center® (EDC), available in the fourth quarter of 2015. Located at 6875 Shady Oak Road in Eden Prairie, MN, the expansion will be instrumental in the advancement of the local Internet community by ensuring dynamic content delivery to local-market consumers.
