👉 Wrapping computing, also known as edge or distributed computing, refers to the practice of processing data closer to where it is generated, rather than relying solely on centralized cloud servers. This approach involves deploying computing resources—such as servers, storage, and applications—on local devices or edge servers located near the data sources, like IoT devices, smartphones, or local networks. By doing so, wrapping computing reduces latency, enhances real-time processing capabilities, and minimizes the amount of data that needs to be transmitted over the internet, thereby improving efficiency and privacy. It also alleviates bandwidth constraints and reduces dependency on distant data centers, making it particularly valuable for applications requiring immediate response times or operating in environments with limited connectivity.
