👉 Picked computing, also known as edge computing, is a distributed computing paradigm that brings computation and data storage closer to the location where it is needed, typically at the edge of the network, such as on devices or local servers. This approach contrasts with traditional cloud computing, where data is processed in centralized data centers. By processing data locally or near the source, picked computing reduces latency, conserves bandwidth, and enhances privacy and security. It is particularly beneficial for applications requiring real-time processing, such as autonomous vehicles, smart cities, and IoT devices, where immediate responses are critical. This model optimizes resource utilization and improves overall system efficiency by minimizing the need to transmit large volumes of data over long distances to centralized servers.
