Edge computing increases the efficiency of data processing, which has become a major bottleneck for several key industries. 

Edge employs a decentralized architecture to localize data processing, which reduces latency, cuts costs, improves customer experience and operations, and enables near-instantaneous analysis of remote applications.

“Any CIO or IT team involved in their organization’s digital transformation efforts must start now to prepare for a major increase in deployment of IT assets and creation, use, and analysis of data assets edge locations,” says Richard Villars, VP of Data Center and Cloud at IDC.
