From a bird’s eye view, most of those edge solutions look loosely like interconnected spider webs of varying sizes and complexity. In our previous white paper the OSF Edge Computing Group defined cloud edge computing as resources and functionality delivered to the end users by extending the capabilities of traditional data centers out to the edge, either by connecting each individual edge node directly back to a central cloud or several regional data centers, or in some cases connected to each other in a mesh.
While edge computing has rapidly gained popularity over the past few years, there are still countless debates about the definition of related terms and the right business models, architectures and technologies required to satisfy the seemingly endless number of emerging use cases of this novel way of deploying applications over distributed networks.
