Edge computing is transforming the way businesses process and analyse data by decentralising computing power and bringing it closer to where data is generated. By extending cloud capabilities to the edge, organisations can achieve real-time processing, reduce latency, and gain faster insights. According to a report by Gartner, 75% of enterprise-generated data will be processed at the edge by 2025, as organisations seek to improve decision-making speed and operational efficiency.
Research from IDC suggests that edge computing is expected to be a $233 billion market by 2024, with industries such as manufacturing, healthcare, and logistics leading the way in adopting edge strategies. The key benefits include improved speed of data processing and the ability to support real-time applications, such as predictive maintenance or autonomous operations. However, organisations must also navigate challenges such as managing distributed infrastructure, ensuring robust data security, and maintaining connectivity over wide geographical areas.
This session will explore strategies that Belgian businesses can implement to harness the power of edge computing, offering insights into overcoming the complexities of bandwidth, latency, and security while maximising operational benefits. How can companies take full advantage of edge computing’s potential in the cloud landscape?
