Data center organization and optimization presents the opportunity to try and design systems with specific characteristics. In this sense, the combination of artificial intelligence methodology and sustainability may lead to achieve optimal topologies with enhanced feature, whilst taking care of the environment by lowering carbon emissions. In this paper, a model for a field monitoring system has been proposed, where an edge data center topology in the form of a redundant ring has been designed for redundancy purposes to join together nodes spread apart. Additionally, a formal algebraic model of such a design has been exposed and verified.
