SMB Innovation at the Edge - White Paper

As businesses of all sizes develop digital foundations, talk of SMBs building an "edge" by building THE edge – edge computing – is becoming ubiquitous. But what is this edge? And why are innovative SMBs investing in Edge computing? The Edge is the place where data from people, places, things, and their locations gets created. Since this is where the action is, decisions can be made more quickly if made at the Edge. In terms of technology, the Edge describes an IT approach that is distributed and networked. An infrastructure in which the compute can be anywhere, with networks that connect a wide variety of endpoints, ranging from human users to the Internet of Things (IoT) devices such as sensors, to bring inputs to processors and ultimately translate endless streams of data into business insight.
