WHAT IS EDGE
COMPUTING?
Edge computing is a distributed computing model in
which computing takes place near the physical location
where data is being collected and analyzed, rather than
on a centralized server or in the cloud. This new
infrastructure involves sensors to collect data and edge
servers to securely process data in real-time on-site,
while also connecting other devices, like laptops and
smartphones, to the network.

EDGE COMPUTING ARCHITECTURE
Edge computing architecture is an alternative to cloud computing
architecture. Edge computing encompasses an ecosystem of
infrastructure components that have been dispersed from the
central location of an enterprise’s datacenter outward—across all
edge locations—as part of an organization’s holistic deployment.
This includes compute and storage capabilities, applications, devices
and sensors—as well as network connectivity back to the central
datacenter or cloud working in concert with Internet of Things (IoT)
devices.
The devices and sensors are where information is collected. They have
just enough bandwidth, memory, processing ability and functionality,
and computing resources to collect, process, and execute upon data in
real-time with little to no help from other parts of the network.
1. Security
While the emergence of IoT edge computing devices increases the
networks' total attack vectors, it also offers some major safety
benefits. Edge computing disburses computation, storage, and apps
through a broad variety of devices and cloud services, making it
impossible to take down the service for any single disturbance.

ADVANTAGES 2. Speed

OF EDGE
Edge computing's most significant advantage is the potential to
improve network productivity by minimizing the latency. The data they
accumulate does not have to move almost as far as it would under
COMPUTING such a conventional cloud environment, since IoT edge computing
devices manage private data or in neighboring edge data centers.

3. Performance Improvement
Edge computing also collects, analyzes, and conducts appropriate
actions on the gathered data locally, in addition to collecting data for
transfer to the cloud. Although these activities have been completed
in milliseconds, no matter what all the operations might be, it is
becoming important to optimize technical information.
4. Reducing Operational Costs
Communication, data management, throughput, and performance
features are surprisingly costly in the cloud computing model. Edge
computing, which has a substantially lower bandwidth demand and
less bandwidth, remedies this inefficiency.

5. Scalability

ADVANTAGES
The companies can't always predict their IT infrastructure
requirements as businesses expand, and constructing a specialized

OF EDGE
private cloud is an unnecessary expense. There is also the problem of
tomorrow 's requirements, in contrast to the considerable up-front

COMPUTING
building costs and ongoing maintenance. Conventional private
facilities impose an artificial restriction on growth, locking businesses
into predictions of their future computing requirements.

7. Versatility
Edge computing's interoperability also makes it extremely flexible.
Businesses can quickly reach competitive markets without continuing
to spend in costly infrastructure investment by collaborating with local
edge data centers.
1.) Power supply
Technically, edge computing can process data at any location on
the planet because it doesn’t require an Internet connection.
However, practically, this concept is often made impossible by the
lack of power supply.

2.) Space

DISADVANTAGES Local networks require hardware to function. This poses the first
problem: not all companies have physical space to store servers. If

OF EDGE
there aren’t enough local servers, the edge computing will not be able
to accommodate a lot of data.

COMPUTING 3.) Hardware maintenance


On the one hand, edge computing provides more control over the way
your data is stored and processed. On the other hand, the enterprise
needs to take responsibility for monitoring and repairing local
servers, invest in maintenance, and deal with outages.

4.) Security
Technically, edge computing can be a lot more secure than cloud
computing because you don’t have to entrust sensitive information to
the third-party provider. In reality, this is only possible if the
enterprise invests in securing its local network.
Edge computing combined with other technologies
Edge integrates centralized and distributed architectures. Cloud
and the edge work hand in hand to enable new experiences. Data
is generated or collected in many locations and then moved to
the cloud, where computing is centralized, making it easier and
cheaper to process data together in one place and at scale. Edge
computing uses locally generated data to enable real-time
responsiveness to create new experiences, while at the same
time controlling sensitive data and reducing costs of data
transmission to the cloud. Edge reduces latency, meaning it
lowers response time by doing the work close to the source
instead of sending it to the more distant cloud and then waiting
for a response.
