Edge computing applications, which entail the processing and storage of data at the source of its production (i.e., near where it is created), is now being applied to a growing number of technologies. The application of edge computing translates into devices that can collect, store and process data, such as smart watches, computers that analyze utility grid data, computerized security technologies, and other systems.Edge computing applications, which entail the processing and storage of data at the source of its production (i.e., near where it is created), is now being applied to a growing number of technologies.
