You’ll be familiar with “the cloud” -  that magical place where your photos and files reside. Not only is it useful for data storage, but for computing too, and cloud computing has had a huge impact on how businesses and individuals use technology. But it has its limits, and that’s where “edge computing” comes in…

Edge computing is a better way of organising things - an architectural overhaul, if you will. And the main benefit? Speed. Processes that might have taken seconds via the cloud could now take milliseconds - an improvement vital for some of the most exciting technologies in our future, including driverless cars.

Find out how edge computing could satisfy our collective need for speed in the not-too-distant future in this explainer video from iluli by Mike Lamb – explaining the ideas and innovations changing our lives.
