Expansion of the Edge: The Preeminent Importance of Edge Computing Today

In this contributed article, editorial consultant Jelani Harper discusses how the reliance on edge components and edge processing is becoming more critical to the decentralized big data landscape, especially with the ongoing need to communicate remotely. It’s imperative to ensure edge networks can be remotely provisioned, secured, and available for fringe processing where applicable to continue to support what’s become a burgeoning need for the IoT in general.

On the Edge of Something Big

In this contributed article, Tim Parker, VP of Network Strategy at Flexential, provides the top four reasons your organization needs an edge strategy now. Edge computing enables efficient data processing near the source to minimize latency, reduce bandwidth usage and lower costs while improving compliance, security and resiliency.

The Open Edge Architecture Imperative

In this contributed article, Roman Shapshnik, Co-Founder and VP of Product & Strategy at ZEDEDA, outlines the path forward for edge computing—where regardless of hardware, developers can create applications to run uniformly on the edge. Constricting the architecture to keep control only works in the short term.

NXP Delivers Embedded AI Environment to Edge Processing

NXP Semiconductors N.V. (NASDAQ:NXPI) announced a comprehensive, easy-to-use machine learning (ML) environment for building innovative applications with cutting-edge capabilities.

Condusiv Technologies Reports: Need for Speed Drives Edge Computing Growth

The actual “edge” in edge computing depends on the application. In telecommunications, it could be a cell phone, or perhaps a cell tower. In manufacturing, it could be a machine on a shop floor; in enterprise IT, the edge could be a laptop. The important thing about edge computing is that it enables data produced by Internet of Things devices to be processed close to where it’s created, rather than sending it to centralized, cloud-based data centers.
