Test your knowledge with this IoT edge computing quiz

Take this quiz to test your expertise of edge computing with IoT devices, as well as understanding how the edge is influencing the way organizations use the cloud.

Many organizations have transitioned to cloud platforms over the years, but now IoT edge computing has shaken up this paradigm by bringing data processing to the outer reaches of networks.

Although edge computing began its development journey in the 1990s, it has become an obvious trend in recent years with many organizations employing it in their networks. The growth of IoT further contributed to edge computing adoption because of the need for lower latency between data creation and processing. The combination of IoT and edge computing redesigned network architecture to distribute data processing.

Many terms surround the topic of edge computing -- including the cloud, fog computing, edge layers and gateway nodes. This IoT edge computing quiz will test your knowledge about what it is, how it works and what it means for organizations' networks.
