Edge Cloud

Edge Cloud is a distributed computing paradigm that extends cloud capabilities closer to end users and devices. Instead of relying solely on centralized data centers, edge cloud leverages geographically distributed nodes to process data at the edge of the network, reducing latency and improving performance for real-time applications.

Key Benefits of Edge Cloud

Low Latency & Faster response times

By processing data closer to users, edge cloud reduces the delay in applications like autonomous vehicles, IoT, and AR/VR. For example, a smart city traffic system can analyze video feeds locally instead of sending everything to a distant cloud
