Intro: IoT Edge Computing Platforms are where IoT devices with limited compute and storage capacity benefit from an edge computing model where these compute and storage resources are distributed closer to the edge and the IoT devices. The advent of 5G fast wireless puts compute storage and IoT for edge computing.
The growth of IoT devices and new applications necessitates real-time computing power. Edge computing and 5G accelerate the support of real-time applications or creations such as AI, analytics, robotics, and self-driving cars, among others. As businesses increasingly adopt IoT technologies, the demand for high-quality IoT platforms grows. IoT platforms enable the creation of hardware and software products for collecting, storing, analyzing, and managing massive amounts of data. Edge computing platforms' use cases are in healthcare and also in industrial settings. Platforms can be open-source or paid, and the choice should be determined by the organization.
