This document discusses edge computing, which brings computation and data storage closer to where it is needed to improve response times and save bandwidth. Edge computing processes data from internet of things devices at the edge of the network rather than sending all the data to centralized data centers. This helps address issues with quality of service from increased latency and bandwidth limitations that arise from the massive amount of data generated by IoT devices. The document reviews definitions of edge computing, compares it to existing cloud-based systems, describes its architecture and applications, and outlines advantages like faster response times and cost effectiveness versus disadvantages like higher maintenance costs.
ABSTRACT
• The Internethas changed the way people access the information they need.
Whether it is individuals reading emails or watching videos, or factories utilizing
automated fabrication devices, the access and processing of data is totally
different.
• As, new research areas are emerging. One of them is Internet of Things (Io T)
which connects countless devices to the Internet as well as the data generated
and transferred.
• This increase brings several issues which could degrade the Quality of Service
(QoS) with delays or even failed requests due to bandwidth limitations.
• Current tendency to solve problems that the Cloud Computing has is to perform
computations close to the device as much as possible. This paradigm is called
Edge Computing.

INTRODUCTION
• Edge computingis a distributed computing
paradigm which brings computation and data
storage closer to the location where it is
needed, to improve response time and saves
bandwidth.
• Edge is the optimization of cloud, to move
the compute close to the source of data, to
the edge.
4.
It is typicallyreferred to in IOT use cases, where
edge devices would collect data and send it to
all data center or cloud for processing.
This allows data produced by Internet Of
Things(IOT) devices to be processed closer to
where it is created instead of sending it across
long routes to data centers or clouds.

LITERATURE REVIEW
• AlexReznik, Chair of the ETSI MEC ISG standards committee, has a broad definition, "anything
that’s not a traditional data center could be the ‘edge’ to somebody.”
• Philip Laidler believes "edge compute includes workloads running on customer premises."[
• Karim Arabi, defined Edge Computing broadly as all computing outside Cloud happening at the
Edge of the network and more specifically in applications where real-time processing of data is
required.

• “In mostscenarios, the presumption that everything will be in the cloud with a strong and stable
fat pipe between the cloud and the edge device – that’s just not realistic,” says Helder Antunes,
senior director of corporate strategic innovation at Cisco.
• Gamelet paperdefines 'the edge node is mostly one or two hops away from the mobile client to
meet the response time constraints for real-time games’.

EXISTING SYSTEM
• InternetOf Things(IOT) systems perform all of their computations in the cloud using massive
centralized servers.
• To overcome the issues of QoS, the edge computing has come into force.
8.
PROPOSED SYSTEM
• Edgecomputing offers a completely different approach: it moves most of these processes – from
computing to data storage to networking – away from centralised data center and closer to end
user.
• Analysing data, faces two problems: increased latency and wasted resources of decentralised data
centers, cloudlets and mobile edge nodes located at the edge of the network.
ADVANTAGES
The four mainadvantages of edge computing are as follows:
• Faster response
• Secure
• Reliable operations
• Cost effective
12.
DISADVANTAGES
The following arethe main disadvantages of edge computing
• Complex network structure
• Edge hardware acquisition costs
• Higher maintenance costs
13.
APPLICATIONS
Oil and gasremote monitoring Traffic management
Grid edge control and analytics Autonomous Vehicles

CONCLUSION
• Edge computingin recent term which moves the services from the cloud to the device as close as
possible and open for new innovations. It is a border line between the cloud and the device tier.
• Although the cloud computing and IOT have brought many advantages n the previous years,
increased number in the connected devices raised some issues, such as latency and low QoS
problems.
• Edge computing is believed to solve these issues and considering the requirements of real world
use cases.
