edge computing
Near-source data handling
Edge computing processes data near its source—at or close to devices, sensors, or users—rather than sending everything to distant data centers.
This reduces latency and bandwidth use, making it essential for applications requiring real-time responses: autonomous vehicles, industrial robots, smart cameras.
The factory uses edge computing to detect defects instantly on the assembly line.
