Internet of Things devices are growing exponentially now ever than before, and the amount of data being produced is increasing right with it. **[Edge computing](https://www.fieldengineer.com/skills/edge-computing)** processes all this information at the edge, where it is being gathered and consumed by things or people. In simple terms, edge computing seeks to bring the computation and data storage closer to where they are being gathered, i.e., the devices, instead of depending on a central location that may be too far away. This way, users can access them faster, thereby enhancing their experience.
