The need for fast, efficient and scalable data processing has never been greater. The dramatic growth we’ve seen in computing power, 5G networks, IoT devices and other data-intensive applications will only continue in the future. Nearly 328.77 million terabytes of data are generated every day. By 2025, global data creation is expected to surpass 180 zettabytes.
Existing data centers and cloud infrastructure are struggling to keep pace with the volume, speed and complexity of data without experiencing bandwidth and latency issues. Edge computing is an alternative approach that processes data closer to where it is generated, spreading out CPU, storage and memory across a large geographic network of points of presence—enabling faster response times...
