The Rise of Edge Containers
Increasingly, containerization technologies like Docker are being used for edge deployments because they have certain advantages: portability, isolation, and resource efficiency among others. Containerized applications are self-contained units that simplify deployment and management across various edge devices with different resource limitations.
Kubernetes, initially designed for cloud orchestration, is being modified in ways that involve frameworks such as MicroK8s to work with edge deployments. This facilitates scalable management of containerized workloads at the edge, ensuring efficient use of resources and easy application lifecycle management.
Top 7 Trends in Edge Computing
In a world where data flows not only from, but within the very fabric of our surroundings. This is the promise of edge computing – an enabling technology that pushes the limits of data processing and decision-making closer to its source – the edge.
It allows devices at the front line to instantly analyze and act on data. It also paves the way for a new breed of real-time insights, self-governing operations by machines, as well as smart decision-making that impacts various industry players such as health, manufacturing, retail, and transportation sectors.
But it’s not like the edge is stagnant. Instead, it’s a shifting landscape driven by future-shaping cutting-edge trends. Therefore, pull up your socks as we take a deep dive into seven top trends set to change edge computing forever.
