A New Frontier in Data Processing 
Edge computing is revolutionizing IoT operations, bringing computation closer to where data is generated. Rajarajan’s work with a manufacturing firm showcased the potential of this technology. 

Challenge 
The client struggled with latency issues and inefficient data processing in their IoT-enabled production lines. 

Solution 

1. Edge Devices:
   1. Installed localized processing units to reduce reliance on centralized servers. 
2. Real-Time Monitoring:
   1. Enabled instant detection of equipment malfunctions. 
3. Integration with Cloud:
   1. Ensured critical data was still synced with cloud systems for broader analysis. 

Outcome 

• 40% reduction in latency. 
• Improved equipment uptime and operational efficiency. 

Conclusion 
Edge computing bridges the gap between real-time responsiveness and centralized analysis, unlocking new possibilities for IoT-powered industries.
