๐ฅ๏ธ Edge Computing Optimizer
Simulate edge-cloud network topology and optimize task offloading in real time
๐ค What Is Edge Computing?
Edge computing processes data near its source rather than in distant cloud data centers. By bringing computation to the "edge" of the network โ in cell towers, routers, or local servers โ response times drop from hundreds of milliseconds to single digits. It's like having a local expert on every street corner instead of calling headquarters across the country.
Why does this matter? With billions of IoT devices, autonomous vehicles, and real-time AI applications, sending everything to the cloud creates bottlenecks. Edge computing enables split-second decisions for self-driving cars, lag-free gaming, and instant factory automation โ all while reducing bandwidth costs by up to 90%.
