This edge computing network diagram illustrates a layered network architecture with cloud computing at the top and edge devices at the bottom. Layer 3 includes centralized cloud servers, connected to Layer 2, which is a network mesh for data processing and routing. Edge devices like computers, tablets, robots, and IoT sensors make up Layer 1, connecting directly to the network for low-latency data exchange. This setup is designed for real-time processing close to data sources, making it suitable for applications requiring quick responses, like autonomous systems. Edge computing reduces cloud dependency and optimizes performance for distributed networks.
