The center of gravity is moving away from the centralized cloud. As IoT devices, autonomous vehicles, and real-time industrial monitors generate petabytes of data, sending everything back to a central data center is becoming too slow and too expensive.
Edge computing represents the next frontier by:
* **Reducing Latency:** Enabling millisecond response times for critical applications like remote surgery or automated driving.
* **Minimizing Bandwidth:** Pre-processing and filtering data locally so only the most important insights are sent to the cloud.
* **Enhanced Privacy:** Keeping sensitive data local and only sharing anonymized results.
By 2027, over 50% of enterprise data will be created and processed outside the traditional data center or cloud.
