The Edge is the on ramp to the Internet of Everywhere
Edge Data Centers move data and processing closer to the End Users In a hyperconnected world, the future of Video, the Cloud, the Internet of Things (IoT), data Security … … need The Edge 1.5x 1.6x 2x 3x 2x 3.5x Source: Cisco, TBR, IDC 1 includes IoT Connected Devices

Massive amounts of Data will be generated from everywhere, driving business decisions in real-time
Legacy Architecture: Centralized Future Architecture: Distributed Edge High latency, low agility, built around backbone peering sites Low latency, high agility, diverse networks, built around users and devices Mesh Public Internet, VPN Wireless Local Edge Compute Cloud Backbone Latency may be ms from core data center Latency ~25ms from edge data center Centralized data Predictable scale Core data centers Central processing Limited device set Proximity to peering sites Distributed data Unprecedented scaling Edge processing Full universe of devices Proximity to businesses, users, devices combine slides 2 & 3, circular versus serial?

Edge Data Centers move data and processing closer to the End Users
ECX is a leading provider of purpose-built Edge Data Centers for Cloud, Network and Content providers EdgeConneX … Scalable, carrier-neutral platform delivers services from the network’s edge … closer to the end users Customer-based approach unique in the industry Blue chip, investment grade customers Long term contracts mitigate build risk and location-sensitive builds create barriers to entry Ecosystem expansion accelerates growth for large providers Edge Data Centers move data and processing closer to the End Users

Our goals are to Own the Data Edge and to be the Cloud Anchors’ expansion Partner of Choice
Own the Edge and Emerging Edge Be Cloud Expansion Partner of Choice Why ECX Wins Edge Content Network Providers Gaming New telco players New use cases (IoT; Cloud-Radio Access Network [C-RAN]) Cloud On-Ramps New markets that can support Edge demand $9B annual spend global market growing at 17% CAGR thru 2021 Rapid geographic expansion / Enterprise migration to Cloud Cloud exchanges gaining momentum Data Sovereignty driving local data hosting Increasing CSP willingness to co- locate in 3rd party DC for fast market access Place Data Centers where Customers strategically need them Commit to deliver and consistently deliver speed-to-market Offer Line of Sight scalability, contiguous growth Open build process Optimize customer’s ecosystems Innovate continuously to better serve the customers and deliver tools integral to their operations E-mods; EdgeOS; 3D walk-thrus; pre- fab solutions <300 kW ~4MW ~5MW Power Demand

Bandwidth consumption drives architectural evolution
ECX redefines the Edge … pushing it deeper out in the network Problem: User Experience at Risk Video drives data growth: Bandwidth-intensive Low-latency sensitive Internet’s current architecture will not support demand Solution: Peering Points at The Edge Serve content from the Network’s edge Relieve backbone congestion Serve eyeballs locally Improve quality of service Reduce CapEx
