Frost Perspective on Edge Computing in Asia-Pacific, 2018
Rising demand for IoT deployments driving the adoption of edge computing solutions
Global Digital Transformation Team at Frost & Sullivan
The term edge computing refers to computing that pushes intelligence, data processing, analytics, and communication capabilities down to where the data originate, that is, at network gateways or directly at the endpoints. The aim is to reduce latency, ensure highly efficient networks operation as well as service delivery and offer an improved user experience.
§By extending computing closer to the data source, edge computing enables latency sensitive computing, offers greater business agility through better control and faster insights, lowers operating expenses, and results in more efficient network bandwidth support.
