Edge Computing Paradigm
Ahmed Banafa · River Publishers eBooks · 2023
Edge computing is a model in which data, processing, and applications are concentrated in devices at the network rather than existing almost entirely in the cloud. Edge computing reduces service latency and improves quality of service, resulting in superior user-experience. Edge computing supports emerging concept of metaverse applications that demand real-time/predictable latency. With the increase in data and cloud services utilization, edge computing will play a key role in helping reduce latency and improving the user experience. When the Internet of Things provides methods that allow people to manage their daily lives, from locking their homes to checking their schedules to cooking their meals, gateway downtime in the edge computing world becomes a critical issue.
