👉 Multi-Access Edge Computing (Mai) is a distributed computing paradigm that brings cloud computing capabilities closer to the edge of the network, specifically to devices and sensors at the network's periphery, such as IoT devices, routers, and edge servers. This approach reduces latency, conserves bandwidth, and enhances real-time processing by enabling data to be analyzed and acted upon locally or near the source, rather than being sent to centralized cloud servers. Mai aims to optimize resource utilization, improve data privacy and security, and support the growing demand for low-latency applications like autonomous vehicles, smart cities, and industrial automation. By decentralizing computing tasks, Mai facilitates more efficient and responsive digital ecosystems.
