IDC predicts that global edge computing spending is expected to reach $232 billion in 2024, up 15.4% from 2023. By 2027, global edge computing spending is expected to reach nearly $350 billion. The edge computing market is showing a continuous growth trend.
In line with the development trend, North China Industrial Control has accelerated the creation of embedded computer products for edge computing applications. At present, it has launched a number of embedded computers with X86 architecture and ARM architecture to meet the application of edge computing technology, which are suitable for industry, transportation, medical and other fields.
The edge computing industry is maturing rapidly
The emergence of edge computing, through distributed computing technology, moves computing resources close to the data source or the edge of the user’s network, and provides integrated computing, storage, network, application intelligence, security and privacy protection and other functions, which can better meet the efficient processing and security requirements of massive data, and is regarded as a supplement to cloud computing power and a key enabling technology for the development of intelligent business. At present, it has been widely used in intelligent manufacturing, intelligent driving, intelligent monitoring, telemedicine and other fields.
With the rapid development and application of artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, big data and other technologies, the edge computing industry is rapidly maturing. The direct driving force of this trend comes from the continuous increase in the amount of data transmission of the current network edge equipment, the required computing power is multiplied, and the demand for high computing power, low latency, fast transmission, high security and low-cost computing infrastructure is increasing, cloud computing power can no longer bear these demands, and computing power to the edge has become the trend of The Times.
