Edge Computing refers to the practice of processing data closer to the source of generation, rather than relying on a centralised data processing system. This approach allows for quicker data analysis and decision-making by reducing the distance that data needs to travel. In the telecom industry, Edge Computing is particularly significant as it enables faster data processing and lower latency, which are crucial for applications such as 5G networks, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and autonomous vehicles. By bringing computing power closer to the edge of the network, telecom companies can improve the overall performance and efficiency of their services, leading to enhanced customer experiences and new business opportunities.
