STAC Lab Network
Customers and vendors who want to test systems that use the latest hardware often face logistical hurdles such as a lack of available data center space, insufficient servers or switches, and delays in ordering and provisioning new equipment.
The STAC Lab Network is a valuable resource for firms that need a faster way to test new products against well-understood, relevant benchmarks. The network consists of STAC’s lab, located in the heart of the New York financial district, and labs at several Innovation Sponsors.
