Understanding Edge Computing
Edge computing is a distributed computing paradigm that brings computation and data storage closer to the location where it is needed to improve response time and reduce bandwidth usage
Decentralized Processing
Reduces latency by processing data where it's generated - at the "edge" of the network rather than central cloud
Bandwidth Optimization
Minimizes data transmission between edge devices and centralized cloud infrastructure
Real-Time Analytics
Enables instant decision-making for critical applications like autonomous systems and IoT
Real-World Application
How edge computing transforms modern industrial operations
