How Does Edge Computing Integrate with IoT Devices and Affect Data Processing?

Hey all,

I’ve been diving into the world of edge computing and IoT (Internet of Things) and wanted to get a better understanding of how they work together. From what I’ve read, edge computing brings data processing closer to the source (IoT devices), but I’m curious about the specifics of this integration.

How exactly does edge computing enhance the performance of IoT devices, and what kind of impact does it have on data processing? Does it significantly reduce latency or bandwidth usage, and are there any real-world examples where this integration has made a noticeable difference?

I’m especially interested in learning about any challenges or limitations that come with combining edge computing and IoT.

Looking forward to your insights!

Thanks!
