Edge Computing and Its Role in Future Cloud Infrastructures

Abstract

Edge computing is transforming cloud infrastructures by processing data closer to the source, reducing
latency and improving efficiency. This paper explores the role of edge computing in modern cloud
architectures, its benefits, challenges, and future trends.

Introduction

Traditional cloud computing relies on centralized data centers, causing latency and bandwidth issues. Edge
computing brings computation closer to devices, enhancing performance for applications such as IoT, 5G, and
AI-driven analytics.

Key Benefits of Edge Computing

1. Reduced Latency: Faster response times for real-time applications.


2. Bandwidth Optimization: Less data transmission to central cloud servers.
3. Enhanced Security: Data processing occurs locally, reducing exposure to cyber threats.

Challenges

Despite its advantages, edge computing faces challenges such as device heterogeneity, security risks, energy
consumption, and scalability.

Future Trends

Innovations such as AI-powered edge devices, 6G integration, and federated learning will further enhance
edge computing’s efficiency.

Conclusion

Edge computing is revolutionizing cloud infrastructures, enabling faster, more secure, and scalable
computing. Future research should focus on overcoming its challenges to maximize its potential in smart
cities, autonomous systems, and industrial automation.
