Edge Computing Market Driver and Opportunities
Integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to Favor Market Growth
In recent years, the Internet of Things (IoT) has gained significant acceptance. IoT has significantly accelerated the development of artificial intelligence (AI) by supplying adequate data for model training and inference. With the continued development and widespread deployment of IoT, cloud computing has begun to disclose an increasing number of issues. For example, if data created by global terminal devices is computed and stored in a centralized cloud, it would cause a series of problems, such as low throughput, high latency, bandwidth bottlenecks, data privacy, centralized vulnerabilities, and additional costs. To solve the difficulties of cloud computing outlined above, a new computing paradigm known as edge computing (EC) has gained extensive interest. Expressed, the EC model's central notion is to move data processing, storage, and computing processes that were previously required by the cloud to the network's edge, near terminal devices. This reduces data transmission time and device response times, relieves network bandwidth pressure, lowers data transmission costs, and achieves decentralization. Thus, the integration of AI and ML is expected to boost the edge computing market growth during the forecast period.
Growing Adoption of Edge Computing
Edge computing is expected to have a big impact across industries. While some verticals have already seen the impact, others are more likely to be late adopters of edge computing. Over the last few years, firms from various industries have turned to Edge Computing to empower both operations technology (OT) and information technology (IT) teams, support mission essential applications and data, and cut costs. Edge Computing has recently acquired appeal due to its scalability, powerful analytics management, and ability to prevent downtime. Edge OTs are powerful computing devices that will fuel the smart factory by managing machines and equipment, focusing on advanced analytics, maintenance, and augmented reality. On the IT side, as these applications have become more sophisticated and essential, relying just on OT teams to manage them is insufficient. Because IT teams are specialists in data governance, management, and security, they guarantee that all of these variables occur at the edge and that scalable technologies are deployed to save money and reduce business risk.
