Edge is a buzzword. Like ‘IoT’ and ‘Cloud’ before it, Edge means everything and nothing. The advent of edge computing as a buzzword is the realization that there isn’t much growth left in the cloud space. Almost everything that can be centralized has been centralized. Most of the new opportunities for the ‘cloud’ lie at the ‘edge’. Edge computing technology is implemented at or near the data source, bypassing sole reliance on the cloud housed in one of several data centers to handle all processing tasks.
