Data Centers
The Importance of Edge Computing
“Around 10% of enterprise-generated data is created and processed outside a traditional centralized data center or cloud. By 2025, Gartner predicts this figure will reach 75%.” In the world of data centers, the term “edge” is used to describe the various computing resources that are used to host applications and services outside of a centralized core. Edge computing reduces latency and improves scalability, as well as lowers the cost and complexity of managing these resources. I am personally a fan of how Gartner explains edge computing with far edge, near edge, and core.
