 3. Cloud Computing  Cloud computing is a infrastructure and software
system that allows for access to shared network of storage, server and
application over the internet.  With Cloud Computing users can access
database resources via the internet from anywhere for as long as they need
without worrying about any maintenance and management of actual
resources.
 4. Limitations of Cloud Computing  Latency: In the traditional cloud
computing model applications send data to the data Centre and obtain a
response, which increases the system latency. For e.g. High speed
autonomous driving vehicles require milliseconds of response time. 
Bandwidth: Transmitting large amount of data generated by edge devices to
the cloud in real time manner will cause great pressure on bandwidth. 
Availability: As more and more Internet services are deployed on the cloud,
the availability of the services has become an integral part of daily life.
Therefore, it is a big challenge for cloud service providers to keep the 24*7
promise.  Energy: With the increasing amount of computation and
transmission, energy consumption will become a bottleneck restricting the
development of cloud computing centres.
 5. What is Edge Computing?  Definition: Edge computing is a distributed
information technology (IT) architecture in which client data is processed at
the periphery of the network, as close to the originating source as possible. 
No need to move to and fro from cloud centre.  Here, rather than
transmitting data to a central data center for processing and analysis, the
work is performed where the data is actually generated whether it’s a retail
store, a factory floor or across a smart city.
 6. Need For Edge Computing Powers the next industrial revolution,
transforming manufacturing and services Optimizes data capture and analysis
at the edge to create actionable business intelligence. Creates a flexible,
scalable, secure, and more automated technology, systems, and core
business process environment. Promotes an agile business ecosystem that is
more efficient, performs faster, saves costs, and is easier to manage and
maintain Developed due to the exponential growth of IoT devices, which
connect to the internet for managing information over cloud.
 7. Edge Computing Terms and Definitions Edge  It highly depends on the
use cases.  Like in telecommunication, it may be a cell phone or cell tower. 
Similarly, in the automotive example, it could be a car.  In manufacturing, it
could be a machine, and  In the Information Technology field, it could be a
laptop. Edge Devices A device which produces data is edge devices like
machines and sensors, or any devices through which information is collected
and delivered.
 8. Edge Gateway  It’s a buffer where edge computing processing is done.
 The gateway is the window into the environment beyond the edge of the
network. Edge Server A computer located in a facility close to the edge
device. These machines run application workloads and shared services, so
they need more computing power than edge devices Edge node  An edge
node is a computer that acts as an end user portal for communication with
other nodes in cluster computing.  Any device, server, or gateway that
performs edge computing. Cloud A public or private cloud that acts as a
repository for containerized workloads like applications and machine learning
models. The cloud also hosts and runs apps that manage edge nodes
 9. Internet of Things (IoT) and Edge Computing  The Internet of Things
(IoT) refers to a system of interrelated, internet-connected objects that are
 able to collect and transfer data over a wireless network without human
intervention.  In IoT, with the help of edge computing, intelligence moves to
the edge.  There are various scenarios where speed and high-speed data are
the main components for management, power issues, analytics, and real-time
need, etc. helps to process data with edge computing in IoT.
 10. Architecture of Edge Computing Edge solutions are usually multi-
layered distributed architectures encompassing and balancing the workload
between the Edge layer, the Edge cloud or Edge network, and the enterprise
layer. Furthermore, when we talk about the edge, there are the Edge devices
and the local Edge servers.
 11. More on Edge  A network of micro data centres that store or process
critical data locally and push received data to a centralized data centre or
repository of cloud storage.  Typically in IoT use cases, a massive chunk of
data goes through the data center, but edge computing processes the data
locally results in reduced traffic in the central repository.  This is done by IoT
devices, transferring the data to the local device, which includes storage,
compute and network security.  After that, data is processed at the edge
while another portion is sent to storage repository or central processing in
data centre.
 12. Example: CCTV System Consider a building secured with dozens of
high-definition IoT video cameras. These are "dumb" cameras that simply
output a raw video signal and continuously stream that signal to a cloud
server. On the cloud server, the video output from all the cameras is put
through a motion-detection application to ensure that only clips featuring
activity are saved to the server’s database. This means there is a constant
and significant strain on the building’s Internet infrastructure, as significant
bandwidth gets consumed by the high volume of video footage being
transferred Now the motion sensor computation is moved to the network
edge Each camera use its own internal computer to run the motion-detecting
application and then sent footage to the cloud server as needed . This results
in a significant reduction in bandwidth use, because much of the camera
footage will never have to travel to the cloud server. Traditional Cloud
Computing System Edge Computing System
 13. Reliability Speed Security Scalability Edge computing has the
capability to increase network speed by reducing latency. It greatly reduces
the distance it should travel by processing data closer to the source of
information. The information present on the cloud has the tendency to get
hacked easily. Since the edge computing only sends the relevant information
to the cloud this can be prevented Edge computing handles reliability part
very well. Since most at times the edge computing does not depend on
internet connection and servers it offers an uninterruptible service. The edge
can be used to scale your own IoT network without needing to worry about
the storage requirements. Using edge computing for IoT allows users to
reduce the bandwidth and data storage requirement and replace datacenters
with device solutions. So, overall cost gets reduced. Cost Effectiveness
Advantages:
 14. Disadvantages  Security: Due to the fact that data processing takes
place at the outside edge of the network there are often risks of identity theft
and cyber security breaches.  Incomplete data: Edge computing only process
and analyze partial sets of information. The rest of the data is just discarded.
 More Storage Space: Edge computing does take a considerably higher
storage space on your device.  Investment Cost: Implementing an edge
infrastructure can be costly and complex. This is due to their complexity
which needs additional equipment and resources.  Maintenance: In edge
Computing there are more various network combinations with several
 computing nodes. This requires higher maintenance cost than a centralized
infrastructure.
 15. Application: Use Cases  Manufacturing: An industrial manufacturer
deployed edge computing to monitor manufacturing, enabling real-time
analytics and machine learning at the edge to find production errors and
improve product manufacturing quality.  Farming: Using sensors enables the
business to track water use, nutrient density and determine optimal harvest.
Data is collected and analyzed to find the effects of environmental factors and
therefore produce good yield.  Improved healthcare: The healthcare industry
has dramatically expanded the amount of patient data collected from devices,
sensors and other medical equipment. That enormous data volume requires
edge computing to apply automation and machine learning to access the data
 16.  Traffic Management: Edge computing can enable more effective city
traffic management. Examples of this include optimizing bus frequency given
fluctuations in demand, managing the opening and closing of extra lanes,
and, in future, managing autonomous car flows.  Smart Homes: Smart homes
rely on IoT devices collecting and processing data from around the house. As
an example, the time taken for voice-based assistant devices such as
Amazon’s Alexa to respond would be much faster.
 17. Conclusion  Edge Computing is very promising and has found many
useful applications  Bringing computation to the network’s edge minimizes
the amount of long-distance communication that has to happen between a
client and server.  However, there are still many challenges faced by the
community, ranging from fundamental technologies to novel application
scenarios and potential business models  Edge computing gained notice with
the rise of IoT and the sudden glut of data such devices produce. But with IoT
technologies still in relative infancy, the evolution of IoT devices will also have
an impact on the future development of edge computing.
