Session 6: Security

Question 1

What is edge computing? and what is the main idea of it?

Answer 1

Edge computing is location-aware and highly supports movement.
The principle is straightforward: If you can’t get the data closer to the data center, get the data center closer to the data

Question 2

What are the types of edge computing?

Answer 2

Edge vs. cloud vs. fog computing

Question 3

What is the common theme between Edge computing types? and what is the different?

Answer 3

They are all related to distributed computing and focus on the physical deployment of computing and storage resources in relation to the data. The difference is a matter of where those resources are located.

Question 4

What is Edge computing?

Answer 4

Edge computing is where storage resources at the location where data is produced

Question 5

What is Cloud computing?

Answer 5

Cloud computing is a huge, highly scalable deployment of computing and storage resources at one of several distributed global locations

Question 6

What is Fog computing?

Answer 6

Fog computing environments can produce great amounts of sensor or IoT data rendered across vast physical areas that are just too large to define an edge
