The Buzz 1: Dozens of song titles have “Edge” in the title, including: Darkness on the Edge of Town by Bruce Springsteen, Edge of Seventeen by Stevie Nicks, and Living on the Edge by Aerosmith. But what does EDGE mean in our tech-driven world?

The Buzz 2: Edge computing reduces the volumes of data to be moved and the distance that data needs to travel for quicker movement of data and a reduction in transmission costs. [theceomagazine.com]

Now imagine your own connected home, car, and energy provider work together to run more efficiently, lower your energy bill, and help reduce the impact on climate change. Sounds good? That day is coming faster than you think.

This is where the edge in technology comes into play. As part of a digital-first evolution, organizations in every industry are beginning to seize opportunities presented by edge computing and IoT – from doorbell cameras and smartwatches to sensors on windmills and in fleets of cars.

An IDC January 2022 report predicted worldwide edge spending to hit $176Bn this year—up 14.8% over 2021—and nearly $274Bn by 2025. Soon, edge and IoT infrastructure, pervasive connectivity, and lower technology costs will ensure that people like you, devices, and data can communicate, collaborate, and innovate efficiently and affordably.

We’ll ask Dr. Angela Nicoara, Ali Benfattoum, Aditya Varma and Sam Lakkundi for their insights on The Future of IoT and Edge Computing: What’s In It For YOU?
