EDGE & SWARM
Cloud Computing
Swarm Computing
Cloud and Edge computing have already transformed IT services, providing rich computing environments on-demand and with pay-per-use models. Now we are witnessing the emergence of the next wave of disruption: as Edge computing evolves to swarm intelligence.
Edge computing
Edge computing breaks the barriers of the data center, intentionally spreading compute and data resources to locations near to data origins, e.g., IoT sensor installations. This proximity min. latency challenges and avoids the drawbacks of large data transfers. This helps enhance system performance and address certain data regulation issues.
Swarm Intelligence
A Swarm is an autonomous entity that orchestrates and embeds distinct autonomous objects, embracing the power of the collective and acting according to a common goal.
Swarm computing will begin to emulate instances of swarm intelligence4 that exist today in areas such as the optimization of factory operations
