IoT Edge Platforms

IoT edge platforms allow for IoT devices to process and analyze the incoming data locally, near the source of the data, rather than sending it on to the cloud for computing.

IoT edge platforms allow for IoT devices to process and analyze the incoming data locally, near the source of the data, rather than sending it on to the cloud for computing. IoT edge platforms are more beneficial than cloud computing services because:

  • The data has to travel a shorter distance for processing, thus reducing latency,
  • The data storage is decentralized at the edge of the device rather than on the cloud,
  • Less strain is put on the network's bandwidth because, even if the data is to be ultimately sent on to the cloud, it will not be in a raw, but rather compressed format,
  • It is a more scalable and cost-effective option than cloud computing since all data processing happens at the edge which reduces the need to purchase more storage space on the cloud.
