Edge Computing and IoT: How they fit together

Edge Computing and IoT: How they fit together

The IoT and Edge computing technologies work together to bring the cloud closer to the data generated by a device. By leveraging the power of small devices to send and receive data, companies can lower latency and improve response time. They can also make better use of data generated at the network’s edge. … Continued

What is Edge Networking and Why Does it Matter?

What is Edge Networking and Why Does it Matter?

By Nikita Griffin, Edge Network Engineer, Fiberroad Technology What Is Edge Networking? Edge Networking describes networking in which processes are moved closer to the users. This minimizes latency because devices communicate with distant servers, creating a delay. Edge devices have different processing power, electricity, and network connectivity requirements. To ensure data delivery and processing, edge … Continued
