An edge computing gateway is a device located at the edge of an edge computing network. It is used to integrate various devices and sensors connected to the edge computing network, process data, and transmit data to the cloud or other devices.
Edge computing gateways usually have certain computing and storage capabilities and can perform local data processing through predictive analysis, algorithm models and rules, reducing data transmission and storage costs, and improving data processing efficiency and security.
At the same time, the edge computing gateway can also coordinate the interaction between the cloud and the terminal, and support services and applications provided by third-party providers. It plays an important role in the Internet of Things, smart homes, smart cities, industrial automation and other fields.
Edge gateway product function description
