👉 Neither computing, also known as edge or distributed computing, refers to the processing of data and computations that occur closer to the source of the data, rather than in a centralized cloud server. This approach minimizes latency and bandwidth usage by performing computations at the "nearest" location, such as on IoT devices, edge servers, or even within the user's device. Neither computing aims to replace traditional cloud computing but complements it by handling time-sensitive tasks, reducing data transmission costs, and enhancing privacy and security. It's particularly useful for applications requiring real-time processing, such as autonomous vehicles, smart cities, and industrial automation.
