Why Edge Computing Gateway is the main trend of the Internet of things Industry

Why is the edge computing gateway a major trend in the development of the Internet of things? First of all, we need to make clear what the Internet of things industry needs. Today, with the rapid development of the Internet of things, the Internet of things has gradually come into our lives from an unfamiliar concept. We not only understand it, but even rely on it. The arrival information of vehicles at the bus stop in the morning, wireless communication of vending machines, underground building monitoring, logistics vehicle tracking, urban traffic control and so on. The connection of so many devices will certainly lead to a large amount of data transmission. In the field of shared bikes, for example, at present, the amount of data generated by a shared bike in one day reaches 40TB. Such a huge amount of data must be mixed with a large amount of useless data, so how to reduce the amount of data transmission without affecting the purpose of collection has become the most concerned issue in the Internet of things industry.

Based on this, some people put forward the concept of edge computing, the so-called edge computing refers to the side close to the object or data source, using the network, computing, storage, application core capabilities as one of the open platform to provide services nearby. Processing data at the edge is beneficial to reduce the transmission of data and improve the communication efficiency between the server and the edge side. For the field of the Internet of things, only part of the collected data is useful, and the rest of the data is of little reference significance. The function of the edge computing gateway is to filter these data in advance and transmit the useful data. Improve the response efficiency, can achieve the timeliness of data transmission.

In the future, the popularity of intelligent medical care and unmanned vehicles needs faster response speed. If these useless data occupy a large amount of transmission bandwidth, it will inevitably lead to the reduction of information transmission time. In medical care, the consequences of reducing response efficiency can be imagined. Therefore, the advantage of edge computing gateway makes it shine in the Internet of things industry.

In addition to the strong edge computing capability, the edge computing gateway also acts as a communication hub in the application site of the Internet of things and the server side of the platform, which plays a great role in realizing data acquisition, communication protocol conversion and data transmission. it provides an efficient and reliable data channel for the information of Internet of things equipment and industrial big data application. Under the blessing of 5G in the future, the devices of the Internet of things are bound to grow exponentially, and the reduction of such a large amount of data transmission will also reduce huge costs for enterprises. Therefore, edge computing gateway is bound to be a major trend in the field of Internet of things in the future.
