What is Edge Computing?
Edge computing originated from the media field. It refers to
the open platform that integrates the core capabilities of network, computing,
storage and application on the side close to the source of data or data, and
provides the nearest service. Its applications are launched on the edge side,
resulting in faster network service response, meeting the industry's basic
needs for real-time business, application intelligence, security and privacy
protection. Edge computing is between physical entities and industrial
connections, or at the top of physical entities. In the cloud computing,
historical data of edge calculations can still be accessed. Edge computing is
not a new word. As a provider of content distribution network CDN and cloud
services, AKAMAI worked with IBM on "Edge Computing" in 2003. As one
of the world's largest distributed computing service providers, it was responsible
for 15-30% of global network traffic. In one of its internal research projects,
the purpose and problem of "edge computing" was proposed, and AKAMAI
and IBM provided Edge Edge-based services on their WebSphere. For the Internet
of Things, breakthroughs in edge computing technology mean that many of the
controls will be implemented through local devices without having to leave the
cloud, and the processing will be done at the local edge computing layer. This
will undoubtedly greatly improve the processing efficiency and reduce the load
on the cloud. Because it is closer to the user, it can also provide users with
faster response, and the demand will be solved at the edge
