The Rise of Edge Computing
Processing Data Closer to the Source
Edge computing brings data processing closer to the source of data generation, reducing latency and bandwidth usage. This is crucial for applications that require real-time processing, such as autonomous vehicles and industrial IoT.
Complementing the Cloud
Edge computing is not replacing cloud computing; rather, it complements it by handling time-sensitive tasks locally while sending less critical data to the cloud.
