CLOUD COMPUTING VS. EDGE COMPUTING
BI Intelligent’s Peter Newman wrote:
• Edge computing is a data processing model that offers users an alternative to cloud-based IoT data analysis and management. It allows users to reduce data transmission and cloud storage costs by processing data near where it’s produced, instead of sending it back to the cloud or a remote data center.
• These systems are becoming more sought-after parts of the wider IoT ecosystem. According to Business Insider Intelligence’s 2017 Global IoT Executive Survey, 40% of companies that provide IoT solutions reported that edge computing came up more in discussion with customers in 2017 than it did the year before.
• ...In the automotive space, edge computing systems are enabling companies to increase the capabilities of connected cars and trucks and approach autonomy.
