Edge analytics is the process of collecting and analyzing data at the edge of a network, near where the data is created or collected, instead of sending it to the cloud or a data center for processing. This type of analytics enables organizations to make decisions quickly and take appropriate actions in real time, without having to wait for data to be analyzed in the cloud or center. Edge analytics can be used to power a wide range of applications, such as smart homes, industrial automation, autonomous vehicles and healthcare.
