With many vendors claiming to offer Top Notch Edge computing services, here are some of the companies to pay attention this year.
With the proliferation of IoT devices, organizations are looking to adopt edge computing, now more than ever. As the influx of connect devices increases, cloud computing platform becomes flooded with data from these devices. Meanwhile, the demand to process generated data in real-time is growing more and more prominent. Edge computing offers to reduce this data traffic and overload on cloud with low-latency benefits and processing data closer to the data generation touch points.
According to IDC, in 2025 nearly 30% of data across the globe will need real-time processing with the role of edge is continuing to grow. With its massive impact on the data center market, several vendors are offering edge computing capabilities to their clients.
