Introduction

Edge computing is a computing model that involves relocating applications, computational data, and services from cloud servers to the network’s edge. This paradigm shift has opened up exciting possibilities for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. By incorporating machine learning, connected objects can gain intelligence and effectively handle enormous amounts of data. However, despite the progress made, a significant proportion of data processing still takes place in the cloud. This approach presents numerous challenges, including infrastructure costs, reliability, security, speed, and energy consumption.
