As we will explore later in the chapter regarding cloud and fog computing, edge routers are capable of providing computing resources close to where the data is being generated. This is an important characteristic in edge routers, especially for IoT solutions. As more IoT solutions are built in remote and varied locations, having the ability to compute locally is essential for many use cases. Computing at the edge can involve affecting user data through techniques such as:
Edge routers will vary in size and computational capacity. They are not data center servers or rackmount ...
