First Workshop on Edge Software Architecture (ESA)

Edge software architecture is a powerful approach that brings computing resources closer to where data is generated, enabling real-time processing, improving efficiency, enhancing security, and supporting a wide range of applications across various industries. As technology advances, edge computing will play an increasingly vital role in shaping the future of distributed computing. Via building competitive edge architecture, companies shall not only enhance their productivity levels but also enable employees to focus more on high-end tasks. It shall largely boost and accelerate the pace toward the next industrial revolution while fundamentally transforming the manufacturing and service industry. It can optimize edge data collection and analysis, creating operational business intelligence. It can also create more flexible, extensible, secure, and automation technologies, systems, and core business process environments when promoting a more efficient, fast-executing, cost-saving, easy-to-manage-and-maintain business ecosystem. Eventually, edge software architecture shall become the key promoter of the digitalization movement of vast modern enterprises. 

Edge software architecture is a distributed computing paradigm focusing on processing data and running applications as close to the data source or endpoint as possible rather than relying solely on centralized cloud servers. This architecture is gaining prominence due to the growing demand for real-time processing, low-latency communication, and efficient use of network resources in various industries, including IoT (Internet of Things), autonomous vehicles, healthcare, and industrial automation.
