Edge computing: Will it replace or enhance the cloud?
Once upon a time, back when we all had mainframes and then servers in our offices, we had edge computing.
Now, with the rise of IoT, 5G, and our never-satisfied need for speed, edge computing is coming back with a vengeance.
Indeed, at his keynote at Open Networking Summit in Belgium, Arpit Joshipura, The Linux Foundation‘s general manager of networking, said “edge computing will overtake cloud computing” by 2025.
When Joshipura is talking about edge computing, he means compute and storage resources that are five to 20 milliseconds away.
He also means edge computing should be an open, interoperable framework.
Open-edge computing should also work with any edge-computing use case: Internet of Things (IoT) edge, a telecom edge, cloud edge, or enterprise edge, whatever, “Our goal here is to unify all of these.”
Formerly known as Baidu OpenEdge, Baetyl is meant to seamlessly extend cloud computing, data, and services to edge devices, thus enabling developers to build light, secure, and scalable edge applications.
Its target audience is IoT edge device developers who need cloud computing, data, and services.
Watson Yin, a Baidu VP, explained: “[Baidu] decided to donate Baetyl, the intelligent edge computing framework, to the community, hoping to reciprocate the open-source community while continuously contributing cutting-edge technologies to the global technology ecosystem.”
Tom Arthur, Dianomic Systems‘ CEO and co-founder, stated: “The LF Edge‘s efforts for an open, interoperable framework for the edge is especially needed for the industrial factory, plant, and mine — where almost every brown field system, piece of equipment, or sensor uses its own proprietary protocols and data definitions.”
That all sounds well and good for edge computing users and companies, but why does Joshipura think that edge computing will overtake cloud computing?
For that, you need to take a close look at LF Edge’s view of edge computing
