The need for and the urgency of maintaining social distancing, demand for contactless solutions and near real-time data analysis driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, is further pushing enterprises of explore the opportunities from edge computing.

Following the 2019 report titled “Edge Computing-Towards A More Distributed Future” that covered the basics of edge computing, this year we present to you a collection of case studies of edge deployments.

One of the best ways to get a wider acceptance of emerging technologies is to evangelise success stories. And this 2021 Edge Computing compendium does just that:

  • Showcases 15 case studies of edge deployments across verticals from Branding & Marketing to Telecom to Food Processing, among others
  • Highlights the business benefits and RoI from these edge investments
  • Explores ingredients that go into making edge deployments successful

Key findings:

  • Global edge computing market to grow 10X to $61 billion by 2028, CAGR 38%
  • Partnerships with Telecom operators and CDN players would play a prominent role in unlocking value of edge computing
  • Push factors: 5G, network virtualization, online gaming, streaming services, video conferencing driven by work from anywhere (WFA) trend due to COVID-19
  • Edge investments are rapidly graduating from proof-of-concept to full scale implementation & commercial deployment
  • Edge deployments are enabling: improved utilization through optimization & traceability; improved user experience through reduced latency & consistent UX; predictive maintenance via real-time verification & quality assurance; automation through remote monitoring & control
  • KPIs, the key to move from pilot stage to production, are around enabling productivity, agility, safety and asset management
  • Ecosystem partnerships is helping companies with faster time to market, differentiated use cases, end-to-end solution stack and lower cost of investments…
  • …Edge solutions need a convergence of varied skills: internet (communication protocols), hardware (sensors, servers), cloud (microservices, containerization), IoT/edge (edge processing, edge AI, IoT stack), AI (model training, computer vision), databases, telecom & networking (SD-WAN, MQTT), software (security, Python, C++)
