Cloud computing is the delivery of computing services—including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and intelligence—over the Internet (“the cloud”) to offer faster innovation, flexible resources, and economies of scale.
Edge computing is a distributed computing paradigm that brings computation and data storage closer to the location where it is needed, to improve response times and save bandwidth. Edge computing pushes applications, data, and computing power (services) away from centralized points to locations closer to users. This can be done by utilizing cloudlets, fog computing, and other solutions.
